Jackie Brooklyn Eagle pin
Paul,
I was the exception to the rule-I was a Brooklyn Dodger fan living in the Bronx in the 50's. I don't have a clue to the distribution of the Eagle. My guess would be that it was a tough sell with NY having the News, Mirror, Journal American, the Post, Herald Tribune and the Times all with substantial followings. I have been collecting Dodger pins for over 30 years and haven't seen many of these for sale or auction. To me, the advertising might have been pure hype-they had some pins in circulation to try and stimulate sales. If they really were sent to candy stores or distributors we would have seen boxes of these show up sooner or later. By the way, I still need one for my collection Jay |
