Gorgeous and very difficult composite photo of Roberto Clemente, from the 1972 Puerto Rico stickers album.  This photo comes from a set of 231 ungummed "stickers" featuring members of the Puerto Rican winter baseball league of 1972.  The stickers were intended to be glued into an album which included current players, old-timers, and stickers of Puerto Rican baseball hero Roberto Clemente.  Possibly best known for the rookie cards of Mike Schmidt and Rich Gossage, the issue also contained multiple composite stickers of Clemente.  This represents the full sheet, card numbers 198 through 206 in the issue.  The presentation is tremendous, with the visual appeal of a NM photo, the technical grade the result of staining on the reverse.  An outstanding and scarce piece.
