Sugardale Coneys (weiners to some, hot dogs to others) saw a two year run in 1962 and 1963, featuring players from Cleveland and Pittsburgh in small sets issued inside packages of franks.  Featuring a well-composed black-and-white image and text on the front and playing tips printed in red on the reverse, these cards as you can imagine, are quite scarce. Clemente is one of two keys in the 1962 set (the other being a common that was pulled from production early) and the specimen here is graded PSA 1.  This card has a lot going for it even with PSA's assessment, with bold colors on both sides and less product staining than many other extant examples.  There is a stamped product code on the right obverse, in an area otherwise meant to be blank, which adds a nice bit of realism.
