Just picked up an odd item. These are cufflinks with an insert of a smaller version of the 1929 Cubs pin featuring the two bears. I have included the pin to show the difference in size. I bought these from someone who deals in jewelry and not sports memorabilia. They believe they were made in the 1970s and are not from 1929. Anyone seen these before or anything like this?
