Earliest Collectibles of "Key" Negro League Baseball Figures

The ‘28 Gibson and ‘29 Paige would be quite a challenge. The Gibson came up for auction several years ago, I was an underbidder but didn’t have the funds to go any higher or I would have. I have never seen the Paige offered publicly.

Thanks for reviving this old thread, I totally forgot that I published this list back in 2013.

It's a shame about Gibson. Was born too late to be included in any of the Cuban card sets, born too early, to successfully break into the majors, and died at way too young of an age.

One could only imagine what guys like himself, and Charleston would've done in the majors.
