New arrival!

1969 Kelly’s Potato Chips pinback button of Mickey Lolich, Tigers. This is from a small, 20 button set featuring mostly players from Midwest teams.

Picked up this pin. I haven't seen one before but I'm assuming that it's related to Maris in 61. I'd appreciate any information about scarcity or value and confirmation that it's Maris related. Thanks in advance!!

It is related to the Mantle Maris pursuit of 61 home runs. It is also very scarce. I would not want to venture a guess on value but it should do well.

Thank you!! I appreciate the information. I pretty much figured that it was related to Mantle/Maris but I just wanted to make sure. I tried to look it up but I can't find one that sold anywhere.

How big is that pin? What type of pin is on the back? The “you could poke your eye out” type?

I can't find my ruler, but it's small. Probably about an inch or inch and a quarter.

Thanks. In your second picture (the back), is that a Union/maker’s mark on the curl or did the paint wear off?

It’s a union makers mark. I have the same pin.

Bought a huge collection of pinback buttons in a small, obscure auction because I saw one New York Giants football button in the lot that I had never seen before. In addition to baseball pinbacks, I also collect New York Giants football ones.

They just arrived and there are buttons from as far back as the late 1800s. Some service awards, coat buttons and other miscellaneous trinkets are mixed in but here’s the Giants button. Apparently it was part of a set offered by Heinz Foods in 1967.

MK is correct. It's a makers mark

Where was Kelly's located? Is the company still in business?

From the interwebs:

Kelly's was a potato chip and snack food manufacturer located in Decatur, Illinois. It closed in 1996 due to financial difficulties.

Hmmmm. I guess I should have checked further down the page from the Kelly's Potato Chips of Austria.
