Merkin Collection - Part 2?

For those of us Negro League baseball card and memorabilia collectors, pickings have been pretty slim since the Richard Merkin collection wound down after several years of non-stop goodies auctioned by Hake's Americana from around 2010-15. While I was fortunate enough to pick up a few items over the years, most ended up out of my reach as the Negro League market was really exploding at the time.

Well, it looks like the Merkin collection is not finished after all. If you check out the Hake's website, you will find a number of Cuban baseball cards from the 1920's along with vintage photos and other memorabilia. Hopefully, this is just the start with lots more to come. Outside of REA & RMY and a few big ticket items from Heritage, there hasn't been a whole lot of Negro League material to choose from over the past few years.
