Thanks in advance!!

Dryer sheet(s) and a Ziploc bag?

Baking powder absorbs odor...so does vinegar.

Open a box of Arm and Hammer and put the box near the pins/ribbons. Cover the whole lot with a big box and leave it for 24 hours. If you don't have baking soda, a bowl of vinegar will achieve the same thing.

Thank you for the suggestions guys!! I'm going to give them a try.

Not too thrilling to the general populace, but I am thrilled to finally get this one. For years, the Giants have sold a "special" $50 bobblehead with the proceeds benefiting their Junior Giants program. The ushers would wear these pins. In 2016, it was Matt Duffy. Problem was, Matt got traded before the bobblehead offer. This pin was tough to find. I can now delete four ebay searches, which makes me very happy!

Now, how am I gonna keep the symmetry of my case?? :eek:

A few Indians ones I got recently.

First one is from the '54 world series.

Chief wahoo one is either a Krey meats or Rold gold. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bf99f3e6d5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8c9f1d8ba5.jpg

After thinking about for a few years, I finally bought one of those shadow display frames off eBay and stuffed it full of pins. Once I got going, it was hard to stop — the task took about four hours. I could only display about half my pins, so I had to make some tough choices. It came out looking better than I expected.

Fantastic display, with awesome pinbacks! There’s something about these shadow box displays I really like. Thanks for sharing!

Definitely a 10/10.

Very nice display.
