Among its circles, baseball's august establishment has dismissed the 1960 Pirates as a lot unworthy of a world crown. We have no quarrel with that position. But as the Bucs matured through that decade, they arrived upon the 1971 season armed to quiet all critics. Roberto Clemente registered monstrous numbers, but his supporting cast enjoyed banner seasons as well. Here, then, are those World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates of 1971 — seven (7) of them — who penned their proud identities to this Official National League (Feeney) baseball. These signatures are a collective "7-8" in quality, and they detail: Roberto Clemente, Bill Mazeroski, Jackie Hernandez, Bob Mooze, Richie Hebner, Vic Davalillo, and Dave Giusti. Ball exhibits some toning and spotting but is otherwise fine. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).
