Posted By: <b>Keith</b><p>I just picked up this and it is definetly my oldest football pin. It is from the 1891 football season and is for a game between Harvard and Springfield. It is a cloth covered pin.<br /><br /><img src="http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n193/kjjavic/Harvard1891pin.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Keith</b><p>Well I guess maybe this isn't a classic pinback. I'll show a photo below of the back. Maybe more of a button. It is missing its back piece, so I'm not sure how it would be worn.<br /><br /><img src="http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n193/kjjavic/Harvard1891pinback.jpg">
