First, although I collect the 1960 Pirates, I will never claim to be a Clemente expert...just too damn tough in my opinion. With that said, the sig on that ball doesn't look like any other signed team ball from that era. If Murtaugh is a clubhouse (and a lot of team balls with him on it are) and it's in the same pen, I'd say it's also clubhouse...but definitely get more opinions.
Also, with Bobby Shantz on the ball, that would put it as a 1961 team ball. He only played in 1961.
