The famous Roberto Clemente's illustrious but tragically-ended career is surmised in this rare bust made of the player. Made in the right-fielder's likeness wearing his Pittsburgh Pirates hat and his number "21" in black on the right chest. The fragile bust was made in chalk and is signed "Juan Simon '72" on the back. Measures approximately 9 inches tall. Slight crack professionally restored, unnoticeable. A beautiful piece of art and remembrance of the great Hall of Famer who met his end in a December 1932 plane crash.
