Old timers Game 1960 Pirates vs Yankees. There are many other slides but these provide a general representation of what I received.

Mike,
Here is the special program for the Old Timers game. That was the first Pirates game I ever attended.

Very cool those slides must bring back memories for you. I have been meaning to bring this thread to a close by posting the remainder of the items I obtained from the original owner. I have been unusually busy and unable to do so. We have a budding rock star in my family and that experience has consumed all my free time.

After a year of negotiating I managed to complete the purchase of this small collection from the original seller. The collection included the 3000 hit photo that I used to initiate this thread, all of the previously displayed slides, a set of 1971 Arco Pirate photos, a 1971 World Series Three Rivers Stadium model purchased at the World Series, a Clemente Family thank you card, and a Clemente postcard. I also obtained his two Dapper Dan tickets. He attended the event with his father and subsequently kept newspaper clippings related to that event. They were a fun read so I included them here. I hope they are legible. My favorite item in the collection was a signed Dapper Dan program. The original owner explained that his father got the Clemente autograph for him at the dinner. The seller said that he thinks he has an autograph book in which he collected the autographs of all the celebrities who attended the dinner that night. He said that if he locates it he will sell it to me as well.

Congrats Mike! Epic pickup for your terrific Pirates collection.

Mike, again that's awesome. Quite a grouping and fits in perfectly with your collecting tastes. Are you going to post comments and choose what to display or perhaps figure out a scrapbook type display to sit down and flip through from time to time? Always interested in how different collectors enjoys their prized items.
