Roberto Clemente night pin Real or Repro?
Hi all .... I just picked up this Roberto Clemente night pin and I'm wondering if it's real or a reproduction. Also scarcity and value if it's real. It's 2 1/8 inches. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think it’s a fantasy piece. There’s a lot of Clemente fantasy pins on eBay. He actually doesn’t have a lot of different pins from his playing days.

Here's a recent post on Net54 that has nothing to do with pins, but shows where the artwork for this fantasy pin came from ...

As far as I know these are the only Clemente pin back/buttons that were created between 1958 and 1973. The 1958 is by far the rarest of them all followed by the Green background pin back which is pretty rare as well. The 1958 pin in this response is not mine. If you have one for sale let me know please. The Courageous Human Being pin has been reproduced as well. Reproductions have the flags separated. The Green background pin has two (perhaps 3?) sizes and can be found with and without the facsimile autograph. The one Courageous Human Being pin comes in two sizes as well. For some reason I struggled to find the 1969 pin back with the stars. I’m told it may be found in two sizes too. The one pictured here is the only one I have ever owned so I’m not sure about the veracity of that claim. If I missed any please add them. If I’ve misspoken about any of these feel free to correct me. I hope this helps the OP.
