Hi all,

I'm having trouble identifying this 1970's era Roberto Clemente post card. Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks in advance!
Travis

Looks like a Jim Rowe postcard based on George Brace photo. There is a good N54 thread on these.

That does look like the same issue. The Aaron photo looks like a very early photo though in comparison to the Clemente photo which looks to be later in his career. Any idea when these were issued? Also, I tried to search for the thread you mentioned but wasn't able to find it. Do you know where I should look?

Collection of 17 different Clemente images
 
Hi Kemdawg. I have a collection of 17 different Clemente postcards with 17 uncropped 8 x10's from where they came. I didn't remember the photographers name until reading this thread and the linked thread - I am sure they are the same - Jim Rowe origin. One of the 17 is the one you posted. All the best!
