    \textit{G. E. Andrews} and \textit{D. Newman} [J. Integer Seq. 23, No. 2, Article 20.2.3, 11 p. (2020; Zbl 1441.11265)] and \textit{B. Hopkins} and \textit{J. A. Sellers} [Am. Math. Mon. 127, No. 7, 654--657 (2020; Zbl 1452.11128)] stated that, for a positive integer \(n\), there are as many partitions of \(n\) with non-negative crank as partitions of \(n\) with odd mex. In this paper a bijective proof is given of a generalization of this identity. The bijection is well defined.
