*Museum Gem* He was nicknamed The Tiger or The Original "Black" Pearl, and was arguably the sport's first outstanding mixed-race player in the World! VINTAGE Arthur Friedenreich Brazil National Team MATCH WORN BOOTS for Copa America 1925 played at Argentina.

Note: El Tigre was a striker without equal, but history did not give him the place he deserved for his sporting merits. Based on his numbers, Arthur Friedenreich would be the top scorer of all time , something that no one has managed to surpass to date. His 1,329 goals as a footballer give him a record that no one has ever managed to equal to date, despite the fact that his name and his legend were lost forever in oblivion . The first great footballer of all time.

Arthur Friedenreich (18 July 1892 – 6 September 1969) was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward. He was nicknamed The Tiger or The Original "Black" Pearl, and was arguably the sport's first outstanding mixed-race player. He played for the Brazil national team and was a record nine times top scorer of the State championship of São Paulo. He is occasionally identified as one of the all-time top scorers in football history, although this is highly disputed.
