Posted By: <b>andy</b><p>I'm wondering if anyone may have this button and know the team. There were 9 teams called the Buckeyes and I can eliminate a few based on the early dates of their existence. Sorry, but no back scan. <br /><br />Negro Leagues: <br /><br />Cincinnati - 1942<br />Cleveland - 1943-48; 50<br /><br />Central League:<br /><br />Youngstown - 1932<br />Lima - 1934<br /><br />Penn St. Association<br /><br />Warren - 1941<br /><br /><img src=http://home.rcsis.com/abowers/minkhbuckeye.jpg><br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I looked it up in Muchinsky's book and it's in there, but my one and only complaint with his book is that not every pinback is identified.

Posted By: <b>andy</b><p>I saw that as well. Between a few different guides I've been able to get pretty close to id'ing most of my buttons but where there are no dates or back-papers, it can be tough. I thought I'd ask about this one here because I like it and am just a little more curious about it. <br />Thanks,<br />-A
