I related it earlier in the thread, but I was fortunate enough to make a deal on a Clemente signed item myself, late last week.
While it may not rival some of these posted items, I will be stoked to finally get it in hand.

It is actually a multi-signed item, but it fit the bill of something I was looking to display and enjoy, not just tuck away after getting it into my possession.

I started a thread about my "project" here. ~~~~~~> https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=284785

I'm hoping to hear word on shipping on my latest auto pickup in the next day or two.
I know the company I got it from was back logged with orders and shipping delays, mostly quarantine-related closure issues.
They have apparently begun shipping items again, and I'd like to get it in hand in the next 4-5 days.

I will definitely post it here once it arrives.

Please forgive my boasting. Most people never see a unicorn in their lives.

I didn't take it as a boast........ in fact I was hoping many board members would post there examples here, and I'm glad you did.

(What I meant was, I wasn't 100% positive I saw it in the other thread, its so many items here sometimes)
The docpatlv thread was immense. Although I have been through it, I didn't necessarily remember any and all auto examples posted there either...... Wasn't really sure if it was there, or the "monthly pickups" thread.

I did snag another Clemente card for my project, but still no word yet on shipping for the auto piece I picked up.
Hopefully tomorrow.

Finally got around to getting this thing scanned...……
Snagged this off 4 Sharp Corners about 5 weeks back.






I thought I got it at a very good price, completely stoked to add it to my collection.
Notice he signed it "Bob Clemente", which doesn't bother me at all, although many might not like it signed as such.

I have seen him sign a few items like that before, but it wasn't often.

Great pickup Scott!

Hello Scott, nice addition sir. Enjoy it. Not sure if this got lost in the prior Clemente thread, it sure took off, but enclosed is an early auto. Too bad it`s so close together but thought best to jump at the chance to get Clemente from his minor league days. Enclosed, an auto from 54 while playing in Montreal in the Dodger`s farm system. Pittsburg sure knew what they were doing when they claimed Roberto. Happy hunting.....

Tum301, that's an amazing piece. One of the earlier signed items I have seen with him. I have seen a few, but its not many from that timeframe, or more likely they are sitting in others collections locked away.


Wondering others thoughts on this particular piece on Ebay.

I have my own thoughts on this item, but I will wait until a few others chime in and give their thoughts on this piece.


One big thing I noticed right away, was the seller feedback of "0".


Would like to know a few other of you guys opinions on this one.
