Mike, are those 1909 patent dates on the front of the tin (it is tough to see)? Just want to know as a reference to the potential age of the related pin and display. I had suspected around 1910 but this probably confirms the 1909-10 date. Also pretty obvious to me these items are referring to the Chicago Cubs, as they are the "Best in Town" and the lithographer martin & Martin was in Chicago.
