1972 Large photograph of Roberto Clemente from the Pittsburgh Pirates as he was congratulated on his 3000th hit by Willie Mays of the New York Mets. Mays would soon be retiring and Clemente would die a few months after this photo was taken, making it a poignant and tragic piece of baseball history. The condition and quality are both outstanding.
