Card #84: 1984 design

Roberto Clemente appeared in the 2012 Archives release using the 1984 design.

1984 Topps is most memorable to me for the Darryl Strawberry rookie card.

The original card numbered 185 in the 1984 set belonged to Sixto Lezcano.  To say Clemente had a better career than Sixto would he the understatement of the century.

I don't own a Sixto card so I had to take this image from COMC.

Looks like he had a decent big league career.

Card #80: Archives

From 2015 Archives is a great looking card of Roberto Clemente that unfortunately due to his tragic death, we didn't get a chance to.

This 1976 design features all the great things about Archives that I love. A chance to see players on cardboard from designs they couldn't appear on using photos that aren't used for many other releases.

Card #74: Another Rookie Reprint

For card number 55 I showed off a metal frame rookie reprint of Clemente.  You can revisit that post here.

Here is another rookie reprint from 2012 Archives.

I would love to one day own an original.
