With all the great Clemente stuff posted from your collection I was surprised this Easter Sunday when I didn't see a snapshot obtained from the Clemente family collection of Roberto wearing Easter bunny ears.
Keep all the Clemente coming. Really surprising Topps didn't put out a card for him in 1974 like the did for Ken Hubbs in 1964. |

Quitcrab,
Was that in Hunt’s auction? I don’t remember seeing it. |

Day 93
ca. 1973 "Touch of Royalty" 8mm Film... ![]() ![]() And of course I found one still sealed in original cellophane so purchased it as well (I know...I have a problem). Not sure if this one is in color, it doesn't have the sticker like the first one, but I'm assuming it is. ![]() And here's a 1973 tribute page from a magazine that has Roberto in a similar pose.

I am not aware of any photos of Clemente wearing bunny ears. It maybe out there. It maybe as elusive as the full 1960 full Bazooka box that Howard has been looking for for 20 years.
Love the Clemente film. Sure would be nice to view.I have a similar Brooks Film and action cartridge. I have never viewed them. Was Clemente issued in the action cartridges from 1970? |

I'm 99.9% sure that Clemente is not in the 1970 Action Cartridges. It would be cool to play these old reel movies. I used to have around 50 or so various movies but sold all of them except for the Clemente films. |

That's a great panel.
I'm curious what others think about multi-player panels, but I really love them (mainly Bazookas, but I like Hostess, and even Berk Ross in this format). I have a '63 and '65 Bazooka panel with Clemente, and I really like them, though I know some purists prefer the single player image and standard size. |

I love complete boxes and panels. Wish I had more, but they have been pricey for a while. I did have some Hostess panels and singles, but have sold most of them off. Mike |

I believe this next item was a stadium giveaway. I have seen more than one copy floating around, but definitely a period piece. ca. 1970s Stadium Giveaway Snapshot photo...

I have been wanting one of these Louisville Slugger commemorative black bats for a long time. They were given to the players and staff of the year's World Series teams. They were not made available to the public and as such the 1971 versions tend to be hard to find and cost prohibitive...at least on my budget. My understanding is that less than 100 for each World Series team were created. They were produced annually between the early 1930s to the late 1990s. I was struggling to sleep last night and came across these two for Baltimore and Pittsburgh listed as a pair. The asking price was half what I was willing to pay for the Pittsburgh bat alone. Sometimes sleepless nights pay off.

Day 99 1968 Team Issue Photo...Not sure how to tell the difference between 1967, 1968 and 1969 team issued photos. They all look the same to me. There's an eBay auction right now with all 3 listed in one lot and I can't seem to tell the difference. Anyone know?

I'm not sure how the '69 compares to following--haven't seen one, but the '67 and '68 differ in subtle ways. The '67 has a smoother/glossier type surface whereas the '68 is almost imperceptibly rippled-like. Also, the '67 has ever-so-slightly wider boarders, whereas the '68 has an ever-so-slightly larger photo compared to slightly narrower boarders (the whole card of course measures exactly alike).

Day 256 When I first saw this next item, I immediately noticed the color & clarity of the photo. When I compared it to the photo above, you can really tell the difference. I do believe that both were issued in the same time frame, but maybe the matted one was in a first print run and then later they printed more of a slightly lesser quality. I'll post a side by side to show the difference. The photo on the right is the more common variation. I believe the photo on the left was part of a small booklet (which Howard made reference to earlier), mine has been cut from that I believe. 1970s Matted photo... ![]() ![]() Side by side comparison photo...

I believe it is the same issue (unless someone possibly reprinted it).

The next item(s) are a newer issue. I don't want to admit how many boxes of Cracker Jack I "ate" (threw out) to get these. ***Those are not my fingers in the first pic*** 2004 Cracker Jack sticker and dupes... ![]()
