365 Days of Roberto Clemente

[hcv123]

So, I'm getting ready to send off some team issues to PSA for grading and figured it would be a good opportunity to share them here as well. While the "price guides and PSA lump together some of the Jay photos -I have narrowed each down to specific years - both from communicating with Jack Webster who has a wealth of knowledge about these as well as owning and going through multiple full team sets. So here is the breakdown of the Jay issued photos - Some of them are identified through subtle cropping differences (1959-60,1962-1964)
1956:

I know there are a lot of questions about the 1966-1971 color issues - while I can't resolve them all, I believe I can shed some light.
This is a sealed 1966 team set

1970 4x5 set

[hcv123]

I have not seen this one around. It is similar to what PSA identifies as a 1971 set, but the coloring is much whiter. This is sealed in the original bag.

PSA identifies this as 1971 - It could be or possibly 1970. This is a sealed pack with no year identifier on the back.

This is likely a 1970 autograph card

I think that is a 1971 issue. I purchased series A and B individually in sealed packs. I later purchased the undated Blue card from a collector who was breaking up a complete set. His set did not have the Series A and B checklists. He claimed to be the original owner and that they were purchased as a complete set without the checklists.
