Need help identifying these 1970's? pins!

Hi Paul,

From the best information I have collected, all 3 are team issued photos. The "Bust" shot in the second post is 1957 for sure. My best guess would make the batting pose 1956 and the head shot 1955 - still have to compare to yearbooks - so I could be off. All 3 are ridiculously rare. Each is the only example I have ever seen. The '55 and '56 I picked up as part of a 30 year collection from a guy who grew up in Pittsburgh. The '57 I picked up as part of a 12 photo team set at a Robert Morris show ~8 years ago. Are you a Clemente collector?

Ps. Do you like the stadium advertising card?

Thanks again Howard. Here are a few more pics-

Wow -great Clemente items guys! I have to compare that bold auto to the one on the 67 Poster Sticker; my memory indicates they look the same which may help authenticate the 67 sticker.

EDIT-I am now advised the stickler auto is believed to be most likely ghost signed.

SWEEEEET Santurce photo! Where is that from? I am also unfamiliar with the postcard you posted after it? PLease post more. This is better than being at a card show (except you can't buy the stuff

) Any other Clemente fans - feel free to join in.

Howard,

Here's some more of Clemente's more obscure items...

And one more round...

Some snapshots (one picturing Vera accepting Roberto's HOF plaque)

And a pretty tough photo viewer, when viewing pictures Clemente, Stargell and 3-4 other Pirates (have never seen another)...

Not all from my collection, but here is some more neat stuff - Anyone happen to know who won that lot of spanish magazines from Lelands - would love to buy some of the dupes.

Love the snapshot! I have never seen the photo viewer! Any idea what year it is from? Here's me! wearing a 66 vest and holding a signed bat! Not a bad fit huh? No, unfortunatley I don't own them.

hcv, I won the lot of clemente raks, sold the 73 one (it had a clemente showing on back as well) as I already had a 73 rak with stars showing. John
