Another possible theory is that the big baseball charm was too heavy. It probably made the pin uncomfortable to wear, or perhaps the weight pulled the ribbon off completely. Looks very cumbersome and out of proportion, but great photo none-the-less!

Mark I totally agree it probably made the wearing the pin cumbersome and probably down right annoying.. But still would love to find one... Mike and Hank yes I to have those pins with the smaller ball for 1925. I have the other mate to the senators pin. Funny The 1934 tigers pin is such a fragile pin to find in condition. With the small pennant but that ball is damn near impossible to find.. Also that ball is about twice the size of the smaller ones used in the 1924 1925 pins. This is how it looked back in the day....
