1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings photo disc. From this year's REA. Not real sure about the nature of this item? It looks like, and is the right size for a pin (1 1/2 inches in diameter). But the image is printed on thin cardstock/thick paper, and there is no evidence of any type of pin attachment on the reverse. Surrounded by a metal ring. According to the auction writeup, this is the only one they have ever seen, yet it was clearly manufactured and not homemade. Proud to own it - finally have something card-like and period for the HOFer George Wright!

Yeah, what is that? Maybe some sorta giveway, or something. Simply a GREAT item tho. Congrats on that pickup!!

Thanks, Phil and Scott.

Just arrived - after the UPS guy took a 30 minute break right outside my window to read the paper. Kinda like that old ketchup commercial with the "Anticipation" soundtrack.

Just came today from Broadhurstinc, neither my scan nor grade do this card justice.
