Yes, thanks Frank!

The “two sizes” are 3” and 3”, yes? And the smaller one would be a fantasy piece (based on the back)?

The Brewers are smaller than 3”, someone might have given the size in an earlier post. ETA, the Brewers are 2.25” according to Tom Hansen in an earlier post.

Another small version of the Clemente pin just surfaced within another collection. I’ve requested and hopefully will receive better photos.

The owner of the second small pin just sent these two photos. He says it’s 2”.

Glad to see this thread resurrected.

I’m holding off on changing my “checklist” until Mike verifies his Reds.

I’m still on the hunt for a Gaylord Perry Giants….which is only rumored to exist.

These are not mine. They are on a Facebook page. I will reach out to the poster.

Hi Mike Just my 2 cents but I dont thing that pin is real. Looks like a very modern repro... I wouldnt buy it...

Do you know the size of the Rose and Bench, Mike? I’m dubious if they’re 2”.

There’s a Bernie Carbo and Tony Perez as well. Mike if you search that same Facebook page you’ll find pictures of them. They were shown about a year ago along with I believe the Rose proof.
