Purpose of my blog

I want to share my collection of Roberto Clemente memorabilia with others, including my loved ones. I realize there may be a time where I will pass it on and I want others to know of my motivation and the items' significance before I forget myself. I also wouldn't mind finding some kindred spirit collectors out there who would like to share stories and knowledge about Clemente or just collecting in general.

2014 Classics - Classic Combos #24 - Clemente and Mazeroski Relics



I have well over 100 different and unique relic cards of Clemente, and several have more than one player on the card. Before this card, I had never even been lucky enough to get a two-color relic. This is a real treasure though in that it is a three-color relic with a decent amount of texture and stitching to it. I didn't have this card yet either, and it is a good combo with Mazeroski, a hall of fame teammate. I have another card from this same set with three players (Clemente, Stargell, and Mazeroski), all bat relics, which is another great card. This brand didn't have MLB licensing, so the logos were all air-brushed off the images, but otherwise they are good photos and I am very pleased with getting this card.

  1. I just discovered your blog. I'm in complete awe of the number of relics you have, vintage cards, and other oddball items you have of The Great One. I hope you continue to post some more of your treasured pieces more regularly. Be sure to follow my blog. I add Clemente cards from time to time.
