Another note - some believe the Giant Fan was distributed by Armour Meats, like the player pins, but I don't think so. It seems to me, the pin would be black, orange and white if that were the case. So, again, my theory is one "stamper"; different distributors.

P.S. the larger, round tabs are obviously a different maker.

P.P.S. Mike, why does the Yankee have an "M" on his hat?
He doesn’t have a “M”. It’s a “N” with a “Y” under it. As in New York.
