About 15 to 20 years ago one of Fred Merkle's daughters gave permission to the Lucas County Public Library (Toledo, Ohio) to display her collection of her father's baseball cards and artifacts. I remember it was full of tobacco and candy cards from the era, all devoted to Fred Merkle. I had just started collecting prewar cards at the time, so I went to the main branch to see it. it really inspired me to build a prewar collection. I wonder what ever happened to that collection. I hope that it still is the family's possession.
Here is one of my Fred Merkle cards. |
