Jim not really considered a PM10 pin as it is only about 7/8s of an inch across.A nice little pin Appling had a long career with Chicago 1930 to 1950 Pin is probably late 30s early 40s. Is common but a nice pin for the collection....

Pinback was produced for ‘Luke Appling Day’ in 1947 - and was presented on a placard that thanked fans for donating to the Luke Appling Fund - FYI.

That’s tremendous! I love finding things that are specific to a particular year but then to a particular day and event? That is amazing. Thank you all for your information.
I would imagine then that this was only available that one day? Or does anyone know if it was sold outside the stadium after the day? I guess I can look back and see what the attendance was that day but to me I would think that it would be a fairly scarce item, no? Last edited by Vintagedeputy; 04-20-2024 at 05:37 PM. |

Somewhat pinback related, I’m always on the hunt for display cases for my pins and such. I stumbled across this one today. It’s a plastic case with a glass front and I think it would be great to keep in my truck so that when I’m out in the wild and I find a nice pin, I can put it somewhere to protect it for the ride home. it’s got an interesting snap closure. I’ve never seen one like this before.

I believe it was actually a special event that they invited fans to separate from a game. They had doubleheaders on 5/30 and 6/2 from what I can see so I believe they were actually off on 6/1 and just held it as a special event.

Would make more sense that it was scheduled for June 1, rained out, played as a doubleheader on the 2nd.
