Fake or real
 
I have picked up these pins over the years and know some are fake and new it at the time. There are a couple I am not sure of. Which ones are fake and why? The Babe Ruth Champions pin has Picayune Cigarettes Factory no. 3 District of Louisiana on the back. Thanks D.

The Babe Ruth never forgotten pins and ones in bottom row have all been reproded a lot. Maybe an expert can tell ya bout the others, and such too, and if the ones on the bottom look like repros. I think that Williams/Ruth one was never really old to start with, irrespective of it being reproed.

6 are real 7 are repros. The 2 yankees pins are good, mel ott booster ,cliff melton, tigers crossed bats,and the small athletics pin. The rest as we would say are "JUNK":eek::eek: Hope that helps:)
