This is probably only of interest to me but no one in my social circle would really give a damn. They are certain I'm a loon for loving this stuff so much. Nonetheless, bear with me. I picked up this pin a few years ago. I have never seen another example. There was no way I could be certain it was related to the 1971 team. I actually suspected it was a 1979 pin because the color scheme was so different than other pins attributed to the 1971 team. Today I was flipping through a 1970 Pittsburgh Post Gazette newspaper supplement celebrating the opening of Three Rivers and there was a picture of this pin. It's the little things in life that serve to make loons like me happy
