Hi Carlton,
Your pin is known as a welcome pin and you are right its about the Giants moving from New York to San Fran. It is listed in Pauls book and it does say that Milton F Kreis was a drug store on Powell and Geary Streets. Listed as pin C-5 has a value at between 75-150.

Jimmy,
Love that mantle maris cap. I cant ever remember seeing that one. Nice to see the 1961 copyright. Here is a pin I picked up which I never saw before also. 3 1/4 inch in size. From the shell oil co. Very happy to get this one Jimmy1

Nice pickup Carlton. There were a handful of businesses that participated in the welcoming with buttons in the same style. Here's another. There's a Lefty O'Doul's one that I just missed out on at a show once that I'd like to have.

Al, Thanks for digging that out...you nailed that one....Those price guides always seem soft so that's a good thing. I emailed the honorable Mark Macrea and he didn't recall it so I knew for sure when Mark hadn't seen it it was rare. That Blast'um Bombers is great...This pinback has opened up another world for me...I've tradionally been into bigger stuff...posters, signs, statues etc.

Andy, thanks for posting another example...It doesn't get any earlier than before they got there...I like it when the date is right on something...a trophy, a poster, a pinback or what ever...it's huge.

I've been after one of these Connie Mack banks for a long time. This one is in fantastic condition. I had no idea they are as large as they are. I placed one of the common banks we have all seen many times as a size reference.


I was happy to add some new pinbacks as well. The Briggs Stadium pin is a tough one to find.

Mike- That Athletics bank is in real nice shape. More often than not these are found with condition issues such as scratches and dents. I am glad it went to you. Great pick-up, they don't surface too often. Adam

Picked up an interesting Nebraska Indians postcard...the seller did not know these players were from Green's Nebraska Indians..and I had to set my photobucket to private last week so nobody else would figure it out.



I knew as soon as I saw the auction that these guys played for the NI because I already had this postcard in my collection..same uniforms and same exact photo studio.

Not real vintage but I'm jazzed just the same. A signed 1962 Post Cereal card of Roger Maris.
Leaves just Del Webb to complete the entire 61 team.

That's the kind of sleuthing I can really appreciate. This is the fun advantage for those of us that collect "obscure" memorabilia--but it does take some work.

WONDERFUL photo of Vandy, Scott! That bit of light slithering onto his foot and into the dugout is really something else. I know I say it again and again, but it would make a frikkin' cool painting!!
