Clemente is my idol. That said, prices were really high on the items I was interested in. Maybe I will catch one back at auction and have a better chance.
My consignment went for freakish money. In a good way. So that was nice. Tom C |

My type 1ny pickup
I feel fortunate to pick this up. I found it very compelling as we all know where his flight was headed "the day... the great one died".

Original sepia tone 3 1/2"x6" image picturing Clemente in Puerto Rico Winter League jersey granting an interview at a stadium in Chinandega, Nicaragua.

I think I won this. I have not received any confirmation notice or invoice but....I can't stand Hunt's website and this live auction was a challenge for me. I bid I saw my bid flicker and then it sold for what I bid. At least I think it was my bid.

No idea auction was on and I spend hours a week trolling for new auctions. Good for you guys they don't advertise on Net 54 or anything.

Funny you mentioned this - I have never bid in their auctions before - I learned about this one browsing ebay and coming across a lot of 10 Daily juice fan club cards that said they were part of a live auction. Nothing in the description of that lot indicating it was Clemente's personal collection. I looked at a few other ebay lots in a "sellers other items" search - saw additional Clemente items (nothing high caliber) and ended up seeing it was Hunt - went to their website and only when I browsed to the end of the auction lots did I see they had the Clemente family collection. I suppose their reach is far enough that they had a lot of action and some really strong prices, but I wonder how much better it could have been had it been better publicized. I would think the sale of a collection of this significance would have been newsworthy - I saw no articles about it in any major media. Happy for me as competition was fierce enough, but think the family could have done much better!
