|  Tabs: Let's see some love for them 
			
			I've always thought of them as a cool subset of pins, much rarer due to the easy breakage of the tabs, as those of my age learned as a kid. You could bend them once, but trying to bend them back without breaking was tough. These are my Washington and Washington/Baltimore sets. I'd like to see yours!

			I've never seen the Baltimore Orioles tab.  Thanks for posting a picture; great looking item.

			A bunch were on eBay recently, maybe every team but at least many of them, and some dupes. That blew me away, because I know how tough they are. I snagged two really nice Washingtons and two Baltimores, which I'm not sure I'd ever seen, either.

			Only tab pins I own.

			The tabs on ebay were from a board member, who, if I recall correctly, has all of the teams other than the Braves.  I picked up this Giants tab from him. The Colts tab helps to date the series to the early 1960s. I know that the Giants tab is very rare.  Not sure if all teams are as rare or if some are more common than others.

			No, but very cool! I remember when Tab came out, the first diet drink I believe, and how terrible it tasted.

			Any way you’d part with the lesser conditioned Orioles tab?
