We have been avid collectors of rare, high grade condition baseball cards and memorabilia (not balls, bats, uniforms or autographs) for 35 years. The focus of our efforts has enabled us to undertake transactions with many a plethora of collectors who spent large amounts of money on their hobby. We have witnessed more than a dozen whales ($1 million a year for two+ years) come ago.

It is evident that a new "whale" has entered our little ocean. He or she has an eye for greatness and a pocket filled with cash.

The dramatic rise in the best Negro League items, evidenced by the Merkin Collection (Hake) and selected other auctions suggests that our new whale is not going to be stopped by high prices. We have bid against him in six auctions, and we have only one two of fourteen lots.

We are attempting to learn more about the new big fish in town.
