Day 282
I really like the simplicity of the original 1960s Hartland statues and the way they actually look like the player. Even though a newer issue, I think the 1990s issued Clemente has the look and feel of the originals. The 2006-07 issues, not so much. 1990s Hartland Statue... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...ndClemente.jpg 2006-07 Hartland Statues... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...andStatues.jpg |

This looks like the place to ask if anyone knows what these were cut from. I’m guessing it is from some sort of outer packaging.

Matt, I have been collecting Clemente for a long time and have never seen those items before. They both have that "fantasy piece" look to me. I could be wrong, as there are always items that I haven't seen, but that's my initial impression. Mike Day 283 1970 Topps poster. Really like this set of posters and they can be had quite cheap... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...oppsPoster.jpg |
Hi Mike,
I have been collecting Clemente since my teens and I hadn’t seen them either. My reason for thinking they aren’t fantasy pieces is where they came from. I’ve done my work on them and to the best of my abilities they seem legit. I hope it’s not my inner child speaking though. |
Need more info and better scans

Welcome to the board. The images were used on a number of different items. Would be helpful if you could - 1- provide better and closer scans of the front and back, 2- Provide dimensions and paper stock and 3 - fill us in on "where they came from" that makes you believe they are legit. All the best. Howard |
Not at home right now so I need to measure when I am. I ran them by a few old timers on the hobby, including my father who has been in the business since 1961. I grew up in a card shop. These came from Jim Beckett. I’ll get better scans up when I can.

1966 Pirates pocket schedule & Team photo (w/ overprint)... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...966Pirates.jpg Similar to the photos I posted yesterday, this next photo (not mine) is a 1966 photo without the overprint. https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...us/s-l1600.jpg It wasn't until this year that I saw a photo with the red KDKA & Foodland overprint on it. It was in rough shape but I was happy to add it. https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...dOverprint.jpg And as it always seems to happen, after having never seen one and purchasing it, a nicer one appeared a few months later so I was able to upgrade. https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...Overprint1.jpg |
