October 26, 2012 By Rich Mueller

Hake’s is in the midst of its 207th auction which closes November 13-15 and includes a large full color catalog of nearly 3,000 items in 200+ collecting categories. The current auction is once again highlighted by Cuban baseball cards and other items from the Richard Merkin Collection. In a recent auction, the 1910 Punch Cigarros “Pop” Lloyd baseball card from this collection sold for a world record price of $94,875.

Auction #207 has more baseball cards, designated by SGC with “The Richard Merkin” pedigree. These include 1909 Cabanas Owen Bush and Matty McIntyre; 1910 Punch Chief Binder, Danny Murphy, Charley O’Leary, Ed Willett, Valentin Gonzalez, Carlos Moran and Eleodoro Hidalgo; 1923-24 Tomas Gutierrez Alejandro Oms and Oscar “Heavy” Johnson; 1924-25 Aguiltas John Henry Lloyd and Alejandro Oms; 1926-27 Aguilitas Alejandro Oms; 1949-50 Acebo Y Cia Ray Dandridge/Quincy Trouppe pair and a 1924 Crescent Ice Cream near set. A few other cards from outside the Richard Merkin Collection include a 1924-25 Aguiltas Biz Mackey and a 1932 Doble Aquila #304 Magallanes vs. Concordia card featuring Martin Dihigo.
