Presented here is a collection from the rare regional IDL Drug Store Pittsburgh Pirates set from 1963. The cards measure 4" x 5", are black and white and have blank backs.

There are (20) cards total in this lot (the full set included (26) individual cards of players and coaches). The much desired Roberto Clemente issue is included here. Nice!

(11) of the cards are autographed. The signatures present nicely, although the Narron is light. 

Collection includes: UNSIGNED (9): Roberto Clemente, Bob Bailey, Julio Gotay, Bob Veale, Danny Murtaugh, Frank Oceak, Ron Northey & Joe Gibbon (2). SIGNED (11): Johnny Logan, Smokey Burgess, Al McBean, Danny Murtaugh, Don Cardwell, Elroy Face, Earl Francis, Virgil Trucks, Jim Pagliaroni, Sam Narron, Frank Oceak

Condition appears VG/EX - EX, however, most of the cards have issues on the reverse.  Four cards - Bailey, Gibbon, Muraugh and Oceak - have red stamps on the reverse from Feicht's Drug Store of Punxsutawney, PA.  Of the remaining 16, all but two - Clemente and Gibbon - are marked with a small check mark, written in ink, at the top left corner on the reverse.  The check mark reduces the technical grade to FAIR, of course.  Please note that the signatures have not been authenticated, though we do guarantee authenticity with PSA/DNA or JSA. 20 cards total.
