Context

Leopoldo Arús Caraballo and his friends (other Cuban technicians) made a note of their meeting in Czechoslovakia in 1985 on the back of this coaster. Leopoldo often brought coasters back as a gift for his father, Leopoldo Arús Gálvez, as he did not allow drinks on furniture without a coaster underneath.
