Show your pins!
 

I don't collect pins, but here are a couple that I won from Henry Yee's auctions. Show any pins that you have.

Very nice pins...will you crack them out? IMO Pins always look better grouped together in a frame of some sort.

Gary,

You are off to a good start. Nothing wrong in specializing in Babe Ruth pins. They would make for a good display if you included other types of Ruth collectibles along with the pins. For what it is worth, I don't believe in grading pins. As such, the slabs detract from their appeal. I hope you become a pin collector.

I wasn't planning on cracking the pins out. However, I'd like to see any pin displays if anyone has them.

I don't collect pins per se but do pick them up every now and then....kind of like felts to me.....

Two pin I picked up this month. Anyone know anything about the Red Sox Pin. Thanks D.

Williamsport (Pennsylvania) was a minor league team of the Red Sox in the early 1970s.

Nice collection, Leon, for not being a pin collector...........

Thanks Springpin

Williamsport Pa is where the Little League World Series is played. (not that it has anything to do with the original question from Dynarl :))

O.K. I will play a little!:D

Here you go Gary, some of my favorites. I haven't added a nice pinback in quite some time. I don't really collect team pinbacks, but rather individual players on pins that catch my eye.

Also FWIW, I wouldn't crack your Ruths out of the holders. I actually like them in those slabs. Only would consider it if you have a larger group that you want to display in a Riker case.

A salute to a currently overachieving team that is fun to watch.

Not sure if these are vintage or not

I'm going by Leon's example and will start picking up change on the ground also.

Great pins guys.

Here are a few Brooklyn Dodger pins

That's a really nice Lajoie fob. Tough to find those without scratches.

Great pins, everyone. Some of those are really nice.

Here are several of mine.

All of my recent additions have been figural pieces, but perhaps this will get me back in pinback mode...:D

Anyone have the Mickey Mantle "Eyes Closed" Pin that they'd like to sell/trade? I know there are a couple on ebay currently, but I'm looking for one without the brown spotting. I was under-bidder in Yee's auction and now am on a mission.

Sorry for the off-topic, self-serving post :o
