Mike that box is incredible too bad it didn't feature Willie Stargell on the far right

Although I don't necessarily collect Clemente photos I have a number of them. This one happens to be my favorite. I share it with a bit of trepidation. It is an original 11" X 14"Les Banos photo printed high quality archival paper. I think it is one of the most beautiful images of Roberto and is seldom seen. I placed a rudimentary, and hopefully unobtrusive, watermark on it to protect it from theft. Unfortunately there have been a number of photos I have posted that have been copied and put up for sale eBay.

Banos was the Pirate team photographer for many years. He doesn't seem to get the credit he deserves as an artist. His work can be expensive and due to this I only have a few examples. You can read more about him here if interested.
