NOBEL VALENTINI ÁLBUM CAMPEÓN – URUGUAYOS CAMPEONES BASKETBALL CARDS (URUGUAY)
There is not much information available for this album, "Uruguayan Champions", released in 1949. The album is credited to Nobel Valentini (and listed as such with grading companies), who was a Uruguayan international football referee in the 1940s and a water polo player. I'm not sure what the connection to him and the production of the album are. The album features a variety of different sports, although I've yet to see a published checklist, so the total number of cards and what sports are featured are unknown. There seem to be between 4 and 8 possible basketball cards in the set. The examples in my collection are the only I've seen.
