While I respect the right for everyone to be private, I feel most everyone here realizes who Merkle is. As someone who has worked with with him on 1977 Topps proofs as far back as the Guersey's auction, I would have hoped he would have contacted me directly. He did not, and I am taking on faith alone those images he said were private to his collection. But why some of those would never be shared, I cannot grasp. For the record, I had no hand in removing watermarks from any image, nor did I ask anyone to do so.
The lesson learned here by the naive posters (of whom I include myself) is that there is much more amazing stuff out there that the majority of us will never see or appreciate.
