The Legendary World of Negro League Mlb Memorabilia
One of the most overlooked but highly priced MLB memorabilia are the legendary items of the old Negro league from 1920’s onwards. Although it is quite difficult to get a real authenticated piece of Negro league Memorabilia but MLB fans have long admired and cherished such rare items.
In recent years, there have been many instances of highly priced auctions for these items. Just a few years earlier, the popular Negro League Baseball Museum in Kansas City bought a uniform belonging to Kansas City Monarch Infielder Newt Allen for over $20,000. On of the reasons that such uniforms attract high prices is their scarcity.
Such organizations as Leland and Hunt Auctions work with sports fans and interested parties to find and sell the major Negro league items. An authentic Negro league item will easily fetch a couple of hundred dollars from the major collectors of MLB memorabilia. Even a replica of such famed items is in high demand and is offered by companies such as Ebbetts Field Flannels and Negro League Stores. It is estimated that a vintage Negro league jersey will sell for more than a Grand.
Due to the restrictions imposed on Negro league and almost non existent publicity by press, the legend has grown significantly. According to the experts, the demand for Negro league memorabilia far exceeds any other MLB collectibles due to the difficulty of acquiring an authentic piece and the legends associated with each item. With only two dozen major Negro leaguers alive and an extinct history, it is impossible to distinguish reality from the fact. Whatever the case, an MLB collectible associated with the likes of Satchel Paige and Ted Radcliff is bound to attract MLB fans willing to share the stories of mythical proportions and superhuman feats.
