Show your pins!

[glchen]

I don't collect pins, but here are a couple that I won from Henry Yee's auctions. Show any pins that you have.

Very nice pins...will you crack them out? IMO Pins always look better grouped together in a frame of some sort.

Gary,

You are off to a good start. Nothing wrong in specializing in Babe Ruth pins. They would make for a good display if you included other types of Ruth collectibles along with the pins. For what it is worth, I don't believe in grading pins. As such, the slabs detract from their appeal. I hope you become a pin collector.

I wasn't planning on cracking the pins out. However, I'd like to see any pin displays if anyone has them.

I don't collect pins per se but do pick them up every now and then....kind of like felts to me.....

Two pin I picked up this month. Anyone know anything about the Red Sox Pin. Thanks D.

Williamsport (Pennsylvania) was a minor league team of the Red Sox in the early 1970s.

Nice collection, Leon, for not being a pin collector...........

Thanks Springpin

Williamsport Pa is where the Little League World Series is played. (not that it has anything to do with the original question from Dynarl :))

O.K. I will play a little!:D

Here you go Gary, some of my favorites. I haven't added a nice pinback in quite some time. I don't really collect team pinbacks, but rather individual players on pins that catch my eye.

Also FWIW, I wouldn't crack your Ruths out of the holders. I actually like them in those slabs. Only would consider it if you have a larger group that you want to display in a Riker case.

A salute to a currently overachieving team that is fun to watch.

[mr2686]

Not sure if these are vintage or not

[carrigansghost]

I'm going by Leon's example and will start picking up change on the ground also.

Great pins guys.

I am not a pin collector, but years ago, when I first started selling cards, I started outside at flea markets, here are a couple I still have, One is a NY Giants pin the other is Hopalong Cassidy, I know he 's not baseball, but I like b westerns also.

That's a really nice Lajoie fob. Tough to find those without scratches.

Hey Al. With all those terrific Pins you have, maybe you could part with just one of your Gehrig photos? :D

[glchen]

Great pins, everyone. Some of those are really nice.

[Forever Young]

Here are several of mine.

All of my recent additions have been figural pieces, but perhaps this will get me back in pinback mode...:D

Anyone have the Mickey Mantle "Eyes Closed" Pin that they'd like to sell/trade? I know there are a couple on ebay currently, but I'm looking for one without the brown spotting. I was under-bidder in Yee's auction and now am on a mission.

Sorry for the off-topic, self-serving post :o
