Yes Al, that Cleveland one has eluded me. The Pittsburgh variations are a huge mystery. I’m pretty sure these pins were distributed locally in the Minneapolis area in 1962. Why then were two versions made? I also know there are two kinds of pins on the back: spring pin and the attached pin version. Do the Pirates pins have these two different pins?
