Since 2021 I managed to find another 14 smaller no-hit pitcher pinbacks.
Here is my updated framed collection which is now complete,
It's been a fun chase!

Nice looking collection with a good variety of different pins.
Are your pins pinned to the backing material or held in place by the glass front?

Hi Greg,
The pins are pinned to slightly padded cloth backing and then are under glass.
Thanks!

I just picked up this 2 inch pin. I was hoping someone could confirm that it's referring to Leo Durocher. Also if it's a common pin and the approximate value. Thank you in advance!

I’m not 100% sure but close to it…..I’d say it’s from the very tail end of Leo’s stint with the Cubs. Probably late 60’s or (more likely to me) early 70’s. There are other pins from Leo’s time with the Cubs, expressing satisfaction or dissatisfaction with his performance. Sorry I can’t help with rarity or value.

Thanks!! Does the 73 by the union mark means it was made in 73?

Then again it could be a political candidate or something else completely unrelated to baseball.

That's why I was hoping that someone could say for sure if it was about Durocher or not. I think it probably is, but I'm not positive.

Could be, but we’ve seen the Leo Must Go and Leo Must Stay….those are beseball.
