Day 72

1971 Buc-A-Day Newspaper cutout...

At one point in time I had a near complete set of these but sold all but the Clemente.

Really enjoy newspaper cutouts especially when they were designed to be cutouts.

By the way I ran across an example of an ad with the picture that was used for the 1971 Galoob Mr. Baseball game. Somewhere along the line someone glued it to a board to frame it, I guess, and now it’s just a mess, but at least you can see where the drawing derives from.

Mark,

I'm almost positive I saw the Brooks pose in that book "This Great Game". Thanks for sharing.

1960s Pirates Coin Bank (Pittsburgh Nat'l Bank)...tough to find with bold red stitching.

Cool looking bank! Just a great collection of items.

Thanks Mark! You've gotta get a Brooks thread going.

Day 74

There aren't a lot of period Clemente postcards out there, at least that I've seen or am aware of, but this is one of them...

1973 Allied Printing postcard...

How bout a goal for next year. I have tried using my phone to post, but the pictures have been small. I need to get another computer since mine has reached life expectancy. Hopefully with a new one I can size the pictures correctly and make for a better Brooksie thread. For now it’s all about Clemente.

Absolutely love all the odd ball stuff you have posted in this thread. How long have you been collecting Clemente stuff?
