Clemente is one of those guys who rarely took a bad photo. I like the Manny's Baseball Land issue because it has quite a few unique and solid poses. This Clemente is a favorite:



I also appreciate the simplicity of the JD McCarthy PCs:

These regional newspaper cut out sets are grossly under-appreciated, IMO. There are a bunch of them going back to the 1930s and they are mostly uncatalogued and quite difficult to find.

I recently added to my collection the September 24, 1971 Shea Stadium pin that Mike previously shared (post 78). I have always wanted to create a grouping of this Type 1 photo taken at Shea Stadium on that night with the pin, and a ticket stub to the game. I hope to frame them together in the near future.

Howard here is another Type 1 photo of Roberto taken at the same photo shoot for the Temas magazine cover (post 268). The photo was shot by photographer Ed Fernandez in Puerto Rico. The same photo shoot appears to have been used for the 1971 Clemente Rawlings Advisory Staff photo.

In honor of the Pirates opening their season today I am also including a full ticket to Opening Day 1971 and a stub to Opening Day 1960. I have only seen one other full 1971 Opening Day ticket. I know Roberto's 1971 Series ring sold recently. I am curious if anyone knows the whereabouts of his 1960 ring.

Great items Mike! I’ve been looking for the Roberto Clemente Day stub for a while. If you spot one, let me know.

Raymond, I think I have that magnet also.

That poster hung on my bedroom door for a few years until Farah Fawcett and that red swimsuit arrived.

Great Clemente photo; image on the 1969 Nabisco Team Flakes card, one of my favorite subsets - I think the whole set is from these photos

Always liked the ‘68 SI posters. The Clemente was always one of my favorites. I had the Brooks on the wall for years and kept moving it around my room; too many tack holes to count. I guess I wasn’t smart enough back in the day to use the same hole each time I moved the poster. I was a true baseball fan and when Farrah with the red swimsuit came along I had the Brooks AND Farrah displayed.

Really like how Brooks is featured on the SI sales poster; always save the best for last...

I always wondered why so many SI posters were hard to come by and others were a dime a dozen.

With all the great Clemente stuff posted from your collection I was surprised this Easter Sunday when I didn't see a snapshot obtained from the Clemente family collection of Roberto wearing Easter bunny ears.
Keep all the Clemente coming.
Really surprising Topps didn't put out a card for him in 1974 like the did for Ken Hubbs in 1964.

ca. 1973 "Touch of Royalty" 8mm Film...






And of course I found one still sealed in original cellophane so purchased it as well (I know...I have a problem). Not sure if this one is in color, it doesn't have the sticker like the first one, but I'm assuming it is.





And here's a 1973 tribute page from a magazine that has Roberto in a similar pose.

I am not aware of any photos of Clemente wearing bunny ears. It maybe out there. It maybe as elusive as the full 1960 full Bazooka box that Howard has been looking for for 20 years.
Love the Clemente film. Sure would be nice to view.I have a similar Brooks Film and action cartridge. I have never viewed them. Was Clemente issued in the action cartridges from 1970?

Lol, I thought you were serious about there being a bunny ears photo. I mean, they auctioned his bath slippers, so you never know. I lost out on all lots I bid on in that auction.

I'm 99.9% sure that Clemente is not in the 1970 Action Cartridges. It would be cool to play these old reel movies. I used to have around 50 or so various movies but sold all of them except for the Clemente films.

Nice ticket and stub too! The 1960 ring sold in the same sale (300k)- here is a picture (no I didn't win it!). Lot # 617 - Wish I hit the lottery ahead of that auction!! Both rings, 2 silver bats, gold gloves, 1960 WS unifrom almost had a heart attack when I saw it all.

Thanks for the info Howard. I did see that auction and also came away empty handed. Somehow I missed the 1960 ring. I see there are 100 more Clemente family lots in their current auction. I bid on a few but remain pessimistic about my chances.

Some of the prices were stunning. Some not so much imo. I was on the phone almost the whole auction. I took home about 5 lots - coolest one I believe to be Clemente's 1954 learners permit with photo. Of course where many of the other lots were falling within the estimates a couple that I REALLY wanted and went after hard, blew the estimates away! Really wanted that 3000 hit Vase from the team with facsimile auto's - I wasn't even close. Under bidder on the gold medal from PR. Such is life. Glad to have won a few. Have many bids on the current auction too! We'll see when the dust settles.

Day 95

I won this next item on eBay last year and when I received it, I was surprised at how small it actually was, even though this is the smaller variation of two coins. There is also a pendant version in addition to the two coins. I posted a picture with a quarter for size reference.

1973 Memorial Coin small size...

Just as I was surprised at how small the coin I posted yesterday was, I was similarly surprised at how large this coin was. Much larger & heavier.

That's a great panel.

I'm curious what others think about multi-player panels, but I really love them (mainly Bazookas, but I like Hostess, and even Berk Ross in this format).
I have a '63 and '65 Bazooka panel with Clemente, and I really like them, though I know some purists prefer the single player image and standard size.

Mike,

I love complete boxes and panels. Wish I had more, but they have been pricey for a while. I did have some Hostess panels and singles, but have sold most of them off.

I definitely prefer the complete boxes! As Mike mentioned - most have been pricey (as they should be based on how hard they are to get). The holy grail I am still searching for happens to be a complete 1960 box with Clemente! Many don't know there are actually 2 "size" variations for most years of the Bazooka's as well - before you get too concerned, there is no variation in the card size on the boxes (like Nabisco did in 1969), but there are 20 piece and 25 piece boxes - the early ones (1959-1962) have different colors and are really cool (imo)

I have been wanting one of these Louisville Slugger commemorative black bats for a long time. They were given to the players and staff of the year's World Series teams. They were not made available to the public and as such the 1971 versions tend to be hard to find and cost prohibitive...at least on my budget. My understanding is that less than 100 for each World Series team were created. They were produced annually between the early 1930s to the late 1990s. I was struggling to sleep last night and came across these two for Baltimore and Pittsburgh listed as a pair. The asking price was half what I was willing to pay for the Pittsburgh bat alone. Sometimes sleepless nights pay off.

* 1968 Pirates Team issue
* 1968 KDKA

any others?

1 - That photo is part of a tri fold cardboard handout - There was room for that photo of Clemente - another space for you to put a photo of yourself and I think some of Clemente stats or accomplishments. I have one somewhere - I'll post when I find it.

2 - The Congressional medal comes in 4 variations (Not including the 2 solid gold ones minted) - large - numbered (1-1950), large unnumbered (50), small bronze and small gold plated (don't know the quantities on those) - I do have one of the gold plated small ones I will post when I find it.

3 - Plug - I consigned a really nice 1962 Kahn's Clemente to Heritage for anyone interested: https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c...ignment-112816

1968 Team Issue Photo...Not sure how to tell the difference between 1967, 1968 and 1969 team issued photos. They all look the same to me. There's an eBay auction right now with all 3 listed in one lot and I can't seem to tell the difference. Anyone know?

I'm not sure how the '69 compares to following--haven't seen one, but the '67 and '68 differ in subtle ways. The '67 has a smoother/glossier type surface whereas the '68 is almost imperceptibly rippled-like. Also, the '67 has ever-so-slightly wider boarders, whereas the '68 has an ever-so-slightly larger photo compared to slightly narrower boarders (the whole card of course measures exactly alike).

Also, the '67 has ever-so-slightly wider boarders, whereas the '68 has an ever-so-slightly larger photo compared to slightly narrower boarders (the whole card of course measures exactly alike).
Thanks for the info!

That shot (obviously if it was clearer) would've made a really cool looking baseball card!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I agree Darren, I bought it in a small lot of Pirates photos and the seller didn’t ID Roberto. Wish it was more clear too, but I’ll take what I can get.

Day 102

1960 Pittsburgh Pirates placemats...

The first one pictured is the most common. I believe I have seen versions with advertisements on the bottom border. From my experience, the 2nd and 3rd placemats are much more difficult to find. Although in rough shape, I really like the 2nd one as it also pictures the 1960 Yankees.










ca. 1961 Pirates Ticket envelope (not 100% sure)...






ca. 1960s Pirates souvenir sheet. Note they used the Willie Mays nodder and applied Pirates decals to it...also priced at $1.50.

Did you know the Nabisco photo is the same photo used in the SI Posters, and I believe those cheap playing cards made from paper - Globe Publishing.

David,

Yes, someone made mention of it earlier in the thread.

I wish Clemente was in the 1969 Globe Import set. I think Brock is in it, correct?

Very cool photo! Pirates added numbers to the front of their jerseys in 1962, so it was taken before that. Looks like some kind of platform is set up around third base behind him.

Thanks George, I’m not good at placing dates on uniforms. So you think probably 1961-62 or could it be late 50s?

Day 106

I collect pocket schedules also and it's surprising how difficult it is to find vintage (1910s-70s) schedules with the team stars pictured on them.
