KITS MFG made them. They are/were likely a Cleveland based company as the only thing I find on the internet is Cleveland players. They also made framed baseball plaques in a similar plastic style. Probably sold at the stadium or in Cleveland stores. Or maybe even a giveaway?

Thanks so much.....Tito played for Indians from 1959 to 1964 and Jim Brown retired in 1966, so I'm guessing these were made early to mid 60s.

Wonder what theyre worth?

They seem to be exceedingly rare, but unfortunately I don't think the pool of collectors is large enough to make them very valuable.

The only one on worthpoint is this Tito Francona that sold for $16.73

I would guess the Jim Brown is at least in the $50 to $100 range though. Maybe more.
