Clemente is one of those guys who rarely took a bad photo. I like the Manny's Baseball Land issue because it has quite a few unique and solid poses. This Clemente is a favorite:

I also appreciate the simplicity of the JD McCarthy PCs:

Picked up a near set of this next issue years ago, and then a few years after was able to purchase a complete set.

These regional newspaper cut out sets are grossly under-appreciated, IMO. There are a bunch of them going back to the 1930s and they are mostly uncatalogued and quite difficult to find.

I recently added to my collection the September 24, 1971 Shea Stadium pin that Mike previously shared (post 78). I have always wanted to create a grouping of this Type 1 photo taken at Shea Stadium on that night with the pin, and a ticket stub to the game. I hope to frame them together in the near future.

Howard here is another Type 1 photo of Roberto taken at the same photo shoot for the Temas magazine cover (post 268). The photo was shot by photographer Ed Fernandez in Puerto Rico. The same photo shoot appears to have been used for the 1971 Clemente Rawlings Advisory Staff photo.

In honor of the Pirates opening their season today I am also including a full ticket to Opening Day 1971 and a stub to Opening Day 1960. I have only seen one other full 1971 Opening Day ticket. I know Roberto's 1971 Series ring sold recently. I am curious if anyone knows the whereabouts of his 1960 ring.

Great items Mike! I’ve been looking for the Roberto Clemente Day stub for a while. If you spot one, let me know.

Raymond, I think I have that magnet also.

That poster hung on my bedroom door for a few years until Farah Fawcett and that red swimsuit arrived.
