Can we get a Negro League DD series of cards?
-
Just like last year's Jackie Robinson's 42 Series, can we incorporate some of the greatest baseball players often overlooked and rarely celebrated -- Negro League All-Stars? Guys like Josh Gibson, Cool Papa Bell, Satchel Paige, Mules Suttles ... you can even include Jackie, Hank Aaron, Ernie Banks, Willie Mays, since they also played in the Negro League before being allowed into MLB. How incredible would it be to celebrate these amazing players and incredible human beings?

If SDS can get their rights, people have been wanting this, so maybe soon.

No .,

In agreement

Well, with the Negro Leagues ending in 1948, it will probably be pretty difficult for SDS to get licenses to use their likenesses and names!
I'd give it the same probability of having a guy like Mary Swanson and a girl like Lloyd Christmas ending up together!

Just spitballin' on getting a license agreement, but wouldn't make sense for SDS to partner with the Negro League HOF in Kansas City? They must have a licensing agreement for the museum and displays. Why not partner w/ them like SDS does with the Baseball HOF in Cooperstown? Maybe that can solve the possible problem?

So you're saying there's a chance!
That would probably be SDS's best (maybe only) option if it is an option.

Was it all star baseball that had negro league players? So I think there is chance for this.
