Jay Publishing was responsible for, among other things, many of the black & white team photo packs found at major league ballpark concession stands in the late 1950's and into the 60's.  Usually issued in 12 player team groupings or "sets", they could also be ordered through the mail thanks to an order form found inside the envelope they came with at the park. Segregated into "Type 1" (with sans serif typeface, issued through 1961) and "Type 2" (1962-65 timeframe with a typeface using serifs) varieties, these vintage collectibles have come into their own of late. The PSA 7 Clemente offered here is one of two variants in the Type 2 category, showing Roberto in his batting helmet pose. This photo presents exceptionally well for the grade, with snow white borders and reverse and an image so crisp you can see the perspiration on Clemente's forehead.
