Clemente photo question a bit OT
Posted By: Damian
I have the opportunity to buy an original photo dated 10/8/54 of Roberto Clemente, Bob Thurman, and an unknown player. The trio are posed left to right with unknown, Thurman, and Clemente in their Santurce (I think I have the spelling correct ) uniforms from Puerto Rico. The photo is in nice shape framed and matted. What would a photo like this be worth. Side note is that the photo is signed by Thurman. Thanks for you help. |

The value of a photo is based much on the quality of the image-- artistry, clarity, etc. |

Not sure about the value of the photo but that was a great team. This pinback is from 1949-53 - One article I read said these line-ups were among the best ever put together. Mays was also on the team with Clemente. |

My understanding is that it means "Crabs." Ebbets Field Flannels makes a throwback jersey. It looks just like a Dodgers uniform, but like the Cardinals, it also has a bat on it. Instead of Redbirds, two crabs sit perched on the bat ... |

Crabs is correct. Do you mind sharing what the asking price is on the photo you may acquire? I'm just curious. |

"Cangrejeros" is actually "Crabbers". |

That's a hell of a lot of interesting info on the Cangrejeros. I had no idea there was such a team let alone that it was loaded with such talent. May have opened up a whole new can of interest for me. I will take your info and try to determine who the third unknown is. To the question of price, I'd rather ask what a low to high range would be to pay for the item. Thanks all. |

I have pitures of the photo I took with my mother's digital camera and had her e-mail them to me. I don't know how to get them from the e-mail to post here. When I try to save them to my computer to post they appear as a bunch of computer jargon as apposed to pictures. If anyone knows how to post them I can forward them the e-mail and they could post. Any help is appreciated as I would like opinions as well as help identifing the third player in the pic. Thanks. |

Just when I think I am beginning to be friends with my computer, I find out it doesn't like me as much as I thought. I really appreciate you taking the time to post those for me. Opinions anyone on value and who is the player on the far left? |
