That looks like a photo of a photo. See the thumbtack in the top-right corner. Why is this not a scan of the photo itself?

Nice catch Japester68. The State Archives of Florida scans the closest generation to original that we have, so in this instance the item donated was most likely a print of a photo...of a photo. Because of how important cigar rolling was to Ybor City, Cuban immigration, and as part of early industry in Florida, it's an important one to have as part of the collection.
