His life cut short his legend has reached mythic proportions among fans today. This lot contains three attractive mid grade cards from Clemente's prime. The 1960 Topps #326 card graded EX+ 70 by SGS exhibits minor wear throughout but is reasonably well-centered and sharp. The 1962 Topps #10 card graded VG/EX+ 55 by SGC has no serious flaws exhibiting signs of general handling - lightly worn corners very light surface wear and soft edges. The 1964 #440 card is an exceptionally clean card with brilliant white borders and a clean image with centering and corner wear responsible for the grade. Three beautiful mid grade examples of one of the most popular figures to don a baseball uniform in the last 50 years.
