Help! Do you know what photo was sent? Roberto Clemente Fan Club
 

Hello! On the back of the 1972 Roberto Clemente
Fan Club cards there was an offer to send 25 cents for an 8x10 of Roberto, do you know what photo they would send?

One bump for the weekend.

They were 8x10 with cut rounded corners. They are incredibly hard to find and I personally have never seen one in real life. Here is a signed example-

Hi, thanks for responding! That is a very rare card, it is a 1961 Harmony Milk. https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/si...berto-Clemente

The mystery still continues, there are 3 versions of the Fan Club card, Daily Juice, Harmony, and Friends of NY. The Daily Juice is most common.

JP2, are you saying that's not the send-away 8x10?

Correct
 

The 8X10 Harmony Milk card pictured is from 1961 - the autograph is facsimile. The card is extremely rare

The Fan club card was issued in 1972. So yes, it isn't possible that the 1961 Harmony dairy issue was the photograph referenced on the back of the card from 1972 (not to mention the '61 HD is not "full color" as advertise on the back of the fan club card).

In fact, I am stumped with the question! Which for those who know of my love for and knowledge of Clemente cards and collectibles, is not an easy thing to do. I do hope someone can shed light on the question though.

What Howard said! And by the way, he was the first place I went to when the question came up. I knew it was going to be a tough answer to get when he did not know. Also hoping someone knows or was part of the Fan Club. Thank you for weighing in!
