Description: Roberto Clemente photograph by J.D. McCarthy with related printing block circa 1950s. Black and white 5"x7" photo showing Clemente early in his career has "J.D. McCarthy" stamp and a typed imprint on the back. In addition, his stamped mark appears on lower front corner. A period "Roberto Clemente" signature on the front is not authentic however it was likely placed there by McCarthy himself and it appears that this very image was used for the postcard which he issued (as part of his extensive and long running series) as the "signature" matches perfectly. Also included is a printing block which has the image (complete with signature) in reverse that was presumably used to print the postcards.
