1946-47 Caramelo Deportivo #136 of Negro Leaguer Barney Serrell, graded PSA 1. This is a pop 4 card at PSA.

Serrell played with the legendary Kansas City Monarchs for four seasons. In 1942, he finished second in the batting title race of the Negro American League, batting .360. In the 1942 Negro World Series against the Homestead Grays, he batted .412 with five runs batted in in the series win.

In 2020, Serrell was inducted into the Mexican Professional Baseball Hall of Fame.

The cards in the two Caramelo Deportivo sets produced in Cuba for the 1945-46 and 1946-47 baseball seasons measure approximately 1 7/8" by 2 5/8". They are paper thin and were designed to be pasted into albums. They were distributed in packages of caramels and are often found with corresponding staining, similar to 1914 Cracker Jack cards in the United States. Most cards in circulation have been removed from their albums, and back damage is common. Fronts feature a black-and-white photo surrounded by a thin black border and creamy white margins, with the card number in a small circle at the bottom. Backs list the player's name, brief bio, and a promotional advertisement for the issuer, "Felices.”

The 1946-47 cards have a semi-glossy front and are on a higher quality, lighter card stock which makes them less fragile than the 1945-46 cards, but more susceptible to creasing. Note that many “high grade” 46-47 Deportivos are actually more recently hand-cut from defective uncut sheets. Those cards can be identified by the faint printing on the back and bright white color. This particular card is original and circulated with dark printing on the back and honest wear.
