A day at the Puerto Rican hall of fame and sports museum (photo heavy)

Hey guys.
I've been meaning to post these for some time but here are some pics from my last visit to the Puerto Rican hall of fame and sports museum. Of course it's not Cooperstown, but for as small as it is, we are proud![image](https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif)
I only focused pics to baseball and boxing. Maybe I'll add some other nice shots later.
Hope you enjoy

Here are all the pro baseball players that at some point played in the Puerto Rican league before making it to Cooperstown

They are unfortunately remodeling this but I had a glimpse at some nice baseballs dating back to 1860

This is what's Puerto Rican baseball stadium looked like in the 20's. Where's the luxury suite?

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
Is this in San Juan?
