Someone posted this before. It's the action photo used for the 1956 Topps card.

I've not seen that before. Topps did a great job. Definitely my favorite Clemente card aesthetically.

I dig rough cuts, so my eyes about popped out of my head when I saw this and I had to buy it:

How about the better of 2 I know exist - 1957 Topps Salesman sample panel |

Here is by fay my worst condition Clemente. It's creased, off center, extremely faded, and been wet. At least it doesn't have paper loss.:D

I have a '72 Clemente that looks like it was carried in someone's wallet for years. I really enjoy well-loved cards like that. |
|
Not much love for Clemente? Regardless, we press on:

A lot of love here!

The only other (in addition to the 1957 previously posted) salesman sample with Clemente that I am aware of. Another super toughie and best condition of them.

Cheating a bit here, but cheating can be fun. My Clementes together, minus the rookie which was elsewhere at the time. Most of these were acquired 20+ years ago, and I've had the '59 longest, since I was about 14. My mom got it as a Christmas present, and hooked me on Clemente at a young age.

Rolling through all the excellent cards I noticed that my favorite Topps base card wasn't shown until the cheat group pic...:) The one time that Clemente was a High Series card (sits below the Rose Rookie in a binder, SWEET) and probably my favorite card of his...here is my 63 Topps and I thought I would grab the 63 Fleer from the same year, they look good together.

Southland Solid Bronze statue
7 Attachment(s)
Hi Guys
Here is a solid bronze statue done by Southlands. These were never made available to the public as there was a lawsuit between an investor for the Clemente piece and the company. No more than a handful were even produced. The first photo was taken a few years ago at the National. Then another shot of the solid bronze The next 3 photos show the original mold Finally some Southland prototypes including a wax and a painted wax, and Hartland painted bronze plastic and partial statues and the Hartland wax. |

73 OPC for today |

I always thought it was such a travesty that Topps didn't produce an In Memorium card in 1974. |
Card for today
