Announcing New Blog
 

Based on the encouragement I received from some members of this board plus my own resolve to enter the 21st century, I have created a blog about baseball pinback buttons. Occasionally I will write about pinbacks from other sports. The blog features both pictures of pinbacks as well as background information about the pins featured. The blog is not just a photo dump of images. I conclude each blog with a listing of what will be the next column. Currently there are two columns, an Introduction and then my opening column that is on the Luxello Cigar Pin Set. I still have much to learn about scanning images, so please be patient with the lack of refinement in some presentations. As I stated in the Introduction, I will try to write one or two columns per month, maybe more if time permits and I acquire some proficiency in doing this. The purpose of the blog is to share information about baseball pinback buttons. I welcome your feedback and suggestions.

The address is baseballpinbackbuttons.wordpress.com

Great job Paul! A welcomed addition for pin collectors!

Paul,

If your blog delivers even a minuscule fraction of the amount of information your book on baseball pinbacks has, it will be a tremendous asset to the hobby.

Looking forward to reading it on a regular basis.

Excellent!

Terrific Paul!!! I believe your blog will help us all learn and expand our scope of collecting. Thank you for your efforts!!!

Excellent, excellent news, Dr. M.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with we pinback-addicts! :)

Looking forward to reading your new blog, great continued contribution
to the hobby.

Thanks
Mike

Thank you for your words of support. The narrative text comes from notes I have taken over the years. That part is real easy. The hard part for me is the scanning and the placement of images within the text. If I ever get proficient with it I could easily do a column per week. For Mike in Michigan I have several columns planned for your Cubs. For BrooklynDodger55 Mike, I have a column planned for your favorite team and year. I hope the Net54 members enjoy reading these columns as much as I do in presenting them.

Best,

Paul

Paul this is great news! I'm sure it will all be interesting but I am really looking forward to info on Cubs issues. Hope this includes Certified Ice Cream and American Badge (subtle hint). But honestly, thanks for doing this.

Bravo!

Gonna cover boxing pins? I have a good database of images I can loan you.
