Large 1960's action photograph of Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente as he watches a pitch from the New York Mets come in high and he checks his swing. A unique image from a local photographer at the New York Daily News (research could easily identify the photographer) that we have never seen offered before. The quality of the image is quite nice as even the ball can be seen with the high speed camera (a rarity for the 1960's) and the figure of Clemente is suspended in infinite animation. Photo has a crease on the lower left corner but is otherwise quite nice.
