Background
The 1925-28 J.S Onagoity "Cigarrillos Dolar" is easily considered one of the greatest sets of all time in the soccer card collecting hobby.
Given the legendary status of this set, I will try to create a compiled list and gallery of graded cards for you to enjoy and scroll through. These cards include pieces from my collection and from other collectors in the hobby space.
My mission with this blog post is to have a comprehensive gallery of the 1925 Cigarrillos Dolar graded cards for easy research and access for the collecting population.

Serie 1a
This series is one of the most notable of the Cigarillos Dollar series. This one features iconic rookies for Raimundo Orsi and Guillermo Stabile. Both players were historic World Cup players with both having made World Cup finals. Raimundo Orsi won the 1934 World Cup for Italy, and Guillermo Stabile was the top scorer of the first (1930) World Cup.

Serie 2a
Series 2 is also an iconic set of the Cigarrillos Dollar because it features players from teams across Argentina during the era, along with cards for the Brazilian and Paraguayan players that contested the 1925 Copa America that was contested in Buenos Aires that year.
This set features the iconic card for Arthur Friedenreich that features him in the Brazilian kit. Manuel Seoane, historic Argentinian and Independiente goal scorer, is also featured in this set with his rookie that features a beautiful portrait shot of his.

Serie 4a
Serie 4a is different from other sets as it includes a significant amount of cards from players in the Spanish La Liga. This is mainly due to the friendlies that were taking place during this time between teams of the different leagues.
