Congratulations to Hake's Auctions on another outstanding effort last night. Once again, some incredible prices realized for Negro League items.

This time I was fortunate enough to pick up one lot, the 1937 Ray Dandridge pair of photos (not sure what I am going to do with the one showing just his legs though). I was also the underbidder on two other lots, the '39 Santurce postcard and '35 Monarchs photo, which was my biggest want in the auction. Just couldn't pull the trigger to go one increment higher. Based on the prices of the premier team photos, I doubt that one more bid on my part would have made a difference anyway.

An astronomical price on the Punch Pete Hill card, seems that these cards may now be the hottest thing in the entire pre-war BB card market.
