Scope and Contents
Second Leatherette Album: It contains Barcelona fotos. Ticket stubs from bullfights. Bullfight fotos with explanations on the back. Pictures from a Barcelona sorteo, where managers choose the bulls. Corridas are mostly in Barcelona, but include the incredible Mano a Mano between Antonio Ordoñez and Paco Camino we saw in Valencia, July 28, 1960. Also ticket stub and a few pictures from a Córdoba corrida where we saw El Cordobés in I think only his second novillada. He was a nobody but would become among the most famous toreros ever.
