In terms of aesthetics and signature quality, this is simply one of the best Clemente single signed balls around. Roberto has autographed it with, "Best Wishes" in bright, medium blue ink on the sweet spot that grades no less than a "9" out of a possible "10". This Official National League (Feeney) ball, signed sometime during the 1970-72 era, is a perfect albeit bittersweet echo of the man whose game was as beautiful as the mark he has left before you. The ball itself, appears to have some game use but is still EX in appearance.
