A local gentlemen brought this in and I can't find much on it. He did have an original Clemente autograph from around the same era and met him in person, so I believe this is period.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Sean

I'm not near my reference files, but that's later than 1953, 1959 or later, and it's the San Juan team ("Senadores" I believe). If no one else comes up with the date range before I get back on Sunday I'll see if I can give you the year(s)

Nice photo! It’s the San Juan Senadores he managed them in 1964. I think it’s a mid to late 1960s image.

The original 1953 Santurce photo w/Clemente is a team composite. I believe one of our board members owns it. Not sure if there is more than one example known for that one.

I have the honor of having been the underbidder on both of them :(

Unfortunately, I know all too well how that feels, Howard. Sorry to hear about it, hopefully, you'll get yours some day.
I'd want to see an image of the back, but from the pic it looks consistent with being original

Check the imgur album, has with and without flash!
The back looks good. Consistent with original.
