This Spalding 159 Model Official League Ball features a gorgeous sweet spot signature from Roberto Clemente in 8/10 black felt tip. The ball itself is consistently toned to a cream color and grades EX+. A very slight blemish on one of the side panels could indicate a signature removal or cleaning of this area. Clemente boasts a stunning baseball resume, including 15 All-Star selections, two World Championships, 12 Gold Gloves, an NL MVP, and a World Series MVP. He died tragically at the age of 38 in a plane crash while attempting to deliver aid to earthquake victims in Nicaragua, and was elected to the Hall of Fame posthumously in 1972. Ball comes with a JSA LOA.
