I’m not sure “my” Giants have a pin that would fit in that set. This one might, but there are no graphics. Then again, the Giants have never had any sort of a mascot logo. |

edit: the logos…particularly St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Cleveland…might provide a definitive clue for dating. |
I would love some opinions on this recent sale. Had only seen this pin at 3.5 inches. Repo?

Today’s antique store rescues! A 1990, 25th anniversary square pinback from Atlanta’s former AAA team, the Richmond Braves. I’m a sucker for Richmond baseball stuff!
Secondly, an original 1969 (not the 1983 repop version) MLBPA pinback of Tommy Helms of the Reds. |

TSOG Pins Episode
Hey, just a heads-up pertaining to a new TSOG Episode. The latest video features the Pinback Buttons of Joe DiMaggio. Nothing "otherworldly" but some fairly nice examples, including a pretty rare one.
Below is the link, and many thanks for checking it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsTBSVVtis8 |

Not a pinback buttons per se, but I’m counting it!
Found this in an obscure, online auction: A circa 1935 Post Cereal, Dizzy Dean pin. I love the rare, oddball, vintage baseball stuff that’s out there! Keyman did a nice write-up on these - keymancollectibles.com/pinsbuttons/di… |
Congrats ! That's a pretty cool pin - never seen anything like that before!

Just in the mail got this (maybe?) one of a kind beautiful Cranes Potato Chips Coupon With Red on the front alongside 4 of the pin designs. I have dated it to 1951-1955 based on the Indians logo and the fact red was traded early in 1956 (hat hes wearing was only worn until 1955)
What makes it even cooler is the hand written notation on the back, it was Written by hobby pioneer Buck Barker and came from his personal collection. He mentions Jefferson Burdick, unfortunately I'm not sure what RS means. (Red Schoendienst? Or maybe an abbreviation used by Buck) I have seen the Yankees and the Indians pins from a friends collection but have not seen the cardinals or Dodgers ones yet. |

Just found this Facebook post in a cursory search - https://m.facebook.com/story.php/?id...73701067307294
I thought that the comment circled in red was especially appropriate to this discussion about Cranes having a 1950s pin set. |

Could the pin in the center be a 1950's Crane issue? It's a pretty common pin but I have never seen a Crane attribution. The slightly larger ones are also a mystery to me and I've never had an explanation for the two color schemes. If any are Cranes, I would lean toward the center pin...it's the right size.

This might also be a possibility…

Does anyone have any examples of those four pins in their collection? I have this one.

Now we need to find some kind of documentation that shows what the complete set of pins should look like. I know we all have team pins that are unattributed to any particular manufacturer or set so it would be nice if we could find out which exact pins were part of the Cranes set. This picture from your friend, could those also be Cranes pins or are they attributed to some other set? |

Obviously there are some that are far newer as well. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5e2eefc46b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2bbb3dba76.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...293724e3eb.jpg |

This is a pin a couple years ago my buddy found in a tool box in his grandfather's garage. I sold it for him, but any clue what value should be?

Picked up this pin. I haven't seen one before but I'm assuming that it's related to Maris in 61. I'd appreciate any information about scarcity or value and confirmation that it's Maris related. Thanks in advance!!
