I'll take these over any $5,000 Nike Jordan's.

Nice Rennie! About 10-12 years ago I passed on a pair of shoes and box priced at around $400. Guess I should have pulled the trigger, tough (and expensive) to find nowadays.

Here are my Clemente's

Nice Michael,

Time for that 1962 Jello!

Wish I could find that 62 Jell-O Clemente.

Really like the sneakers, box and tag! Never seen them before...

I've been on the heels of those at least 3 times, but never had them. Sneakers are tough - box is tougher! Nice one!

Brian,

Nice photo! Was that from Hunt's auction?

Day 39

1972 Topps Poster...probably a candidate for an upgrade at some point.

Which poster do you like better the ‘68 or ‘72?

docpatlv · #11 02-07-2018, 05:28 PM

Mark,

I like them both, but probably the 1972 better.

Day 40

Up next is a snapshot photo of Roberto and possibly teammates/other MLB players attending what appears to be a little league game (based on the player at the far end of the bench). I have made a small attempt to identify the gentlemen sitting next to Clemente, but have met little success. If anyone has any ideas as to who they may be, please feel free to post.

What I love about the photo is how close the general public is to Roberto and others and how they genuinely seem more interested in the game than being in the presence of MLBers.

Not sure on the date this photo was taken but I'm guessing.

ca. late 1950s-early 1960s Snapshot photo...
