It looks like Legendary has updated the description for the PM1 Ruth pin, basically saying that these pins could have been issued over a period of years, so that the Ruth pin could have been issued around 1918, consistent with the Conlon photo that was probably used as the base. They also added some additional authentication info.
I do have a couple of other questions, however. In their decription, Legendary mentions a Bressler PM1 pin, in order to show that other PM1 pins could have been issued after 1915. However, there is no Bressler pin in the Legendary auction or the oldcardboard checklist. Is it known that a Bressler PM1 pin exists? (Scott is also used in the same context, so does Scott also exist?) If these pins do exist, it would go a long ways to show that these pins were issued over a period of years, so that it would be very likely that Ruth was included among them.
Legendary has also seemed to prove that the pin itself is authentic. Still, however, going back to Rob D's post, is it possible to carefully bend the settings on the back of the pin, remove the backing, and replace the photo with another photo?
