Denver Bears / Grizzlies
I just picked up two incredible pins relating to the Denver Bears / Grizzlies. The Denver Bears (aka Grizzlies, Mountaineers & Mountain Lions) was a minor league team that played from 1884 through 1954. The 1911 Grizzlies were the Western League Champions and are considered one of the top 100 minor league teams of all-time.
One of the pins I just got is related to that 1911 team. It has a team photo but more amazing is the ribbon attachment. The pin is shown in the Muchinsky book (without ribbon). The other pin is a homecoming pin for the 1923 Denver Bears. It pictures many of their players in individual cameos. Any thoughts on their value would be appreciated. Thanks! Lou

Rob- I enjoyed seeing all of those Giants pins. I think my favorite was the anti-Dodger Boo-ribe.
Attached is recent pickup for me, a Chester Charge button from earlier days of the Astros. Apparently the Astrodome scoreboard was a big deal back in the day and Chester was a graphic that would "run" across the board when good things happened.

I picked up the second pose of the large PM-10 for Hank Bauer. Still missing Richardson, Boyer and Slaughter.

I got so hard up, I actually sent a letter to Krukow about a month ago. On a good note, I got something cheap on ebay today that I’ve been looking for for 20 years! (not a pin).
