Help with St Louis Browns Items
 
2 Attachment(s)
Looking for a little help with these St Louis Browns items. Was the belt buckle a presentation piece or custom made for a fan... Is the pin a stadium pin. Any help would be appreciated. Tony

Sorry I can't help, but they are cool Brownie's items!

Good luck getting the help you're looking for!

Browns items
 
The belt buckle is intresting and probably was custom made. The pin looks to be a 6 inch one . And is listed in The Baseball pin back button book as being in 2 versions. It doesnt show the leather surround in the book . Thats not to say it wasnt included with the pin . Your 2 items may have been a presentation for someone. Look to be in very nice shape. Both versions of the pin guide for 300. You could probably expect 200-225 for the pin. As for the belt buckle hard to say. 150-200 would be a good guess. Nice items good luck with them.

I've seen Belt Buckles just like that, which were presented to/made for Players. If yours could be tied to a Browns Player, it could be worth $800 - $1,000 or so. You may want to go to Baseball Almanac, and check the Browns' rosters of the 1940s to see if there's a match. Best of luck!

I'm not seeing any D.L.B. matches for Browns players, unless there's a nickname involved that I'm missing:

Nope.... unfortunately no Player matches. Perhaps a coach, scout or employee associated with the team. Still a very neat looking piece.
