1960's Roberto Clemente Single Signed Baseball
<B>Late 1960's Roberto Clemente Single Signed Baseball.</B></I> He gave his Pittsburgh fans the pleasure of witnessing his 3,000th career hit before giving his life in a tragic airplane accident during the subsequent off-season while on a humanitarian aid mission to Nicaragua. Joining the likes of Lou Gehrig and Jackie Robinson as the best and bravest in baseball history, Clemente should be considered an essential component of any quality autograph collection. Here we present an exceptional specimen, residing alone on the side panel of a "Worth Official League" baseball. Preceding his complex and distinctive signature is a greeting of "Best Wishes," all rendered with 9+/10 boldness. A couple light patches of toning on adjacent panels bears no effect upon display value, which is undeniably world class. <I>LOA from PSA/DNA.
