Roberto Clemente Handwritten Letter PSA/DNA
<B>1960's Roberto Clemente Handwritten Letter.</B></I> Single handwritten page is penned in Clemente's native Spanish. Translated text: "Dearest Ivonne, I hope you and your loved ones are all well upon receipt of this letter. I received your note which made me very happy. As always it is nice to know of my friends in Puerto Rico. Only a few days before the end of the season. When I see the other players from San Juan I will say hello for you. If you by chance come to Pittsburgh, let me know, we are at your service. Let me say goodbye as always, your friend, Love, Roberto." All ink is 10/10 in quality, and the page has original mailing folds and light toning, but is otherwise in fine condition. A friendly and charming ALS from one of the game's great heroes. <I>LOA from PSA/DNA.</B></I> <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.5% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Galleries & Auctioneers. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Galleries & Auctioneers, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:19098 <BR><BR><B>Winning Notification and Billing:</B> After the FINAL session in this auction is complete, Heritage will send e-mail and snail mail invoices.
