1961 Key Chain Insert
Does anyone collect these? If so, could you please tell me what color chain you have on your keychains?
Thank you, Chris

Key Chains
Chris---what are these ? I have one of the Topps Lucky Penny send away coins on a chain, which you could get from the send away card insert, but not sure what key chains you are referencing

Thanks Al. They keychains I am referring to featured black and white pictures of players and were likely included in one of the quarter (Don't know the price then) vending machines. There were about six players issued, and each picture was in a little plastic holder on a metal chain. They are a bit oddball in nature, but PSA grades the pictures themselves.

Hahah, if they were topps you'd already have them in your set. These were really cheaply made by what was likely a novelty company. I posted a recent pickup in the pickup thread.

Below are pictures of the keychain and insert. I am confident that the paper insert (graded) and plastic portion of the keychain are original. The metal chain portion seems a bit too new to me. Also, I've seen others that were brass colored but no others that are silver. Thoughts?

I know this is an older thread, but there were three (3) of these keychain items in a relatively recent auction (anyone here win these?). The auction included B. Robby, Mathews and Spahn. None had the chain itself though. Does anyone have a checklist on these? I've seen the one's that have been graded by PSA, but I know there are others. Besides the one's I've listed above I've seen a Del Crandell, Norm Larker, and Rocky Nelson. Do you know of any others? By the way I "NEED" a Brooksie one if anyone, anywhere, has one available.

Thank you. I didn't see the auction. I don't collect the set, but wish I had started it before PSA started grading them. Hope you get the one you are looking for.

The Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards lists the set with a checklist of 69 pieces . . . with no Brooks Robinson.

Brooks Robinson

No Brooks?!? The one that I pictured (below) has a Brooks included w/in the auction; do you think it's real and not listed in the Catalog? Regards, Mark

I'm not sure the ones in your picture are from the same issue as those the catalogs identifies as 1961 Baseball Key Chains. The cataloged set does not have team names at the top.
