The photo they use of the back with the union logo is really that of the mickey mantle theresa brewer pin. You can see the edge of the bat very clearly. Back looks very different. Being an owner of a real one here are the front and back scans. The union logo on the real one looks nothing like what they have posted. If you go by them you might not be buying the real thing so still be careful as this is a 1000 to 1500 dollar pin.There are others that need fixing....

I hear ya, Al, and here's my 1699th post, to keep up!
There are so many mysteries, maybe none more-so than in the field of pinbacks. I was looking for some info on the 1978 Sports Photo Assoc. pins and found that website, with a checklist of about 200. I knew of two Giants Steve didn't have listed and let him know. He emailed me back and seemed receptive. Here's another example of some info I didn't know and I love the Rold-Gold photos!
