Question for the pinback experts
 

Is this "real," i.e. vintage to Willie's time in NY? I've seen pictures twice. Not sure if it's 1.75" or 2.25." Any ideas as to value? Thanks!

Well yes and no. It is a PM10 stadium pin per say. 1 3/4 inch in size. The picture is from his playing days in NY but I can tell you this pin was made many years later. It is a little harder to find and does come up on ebay once in a while. My belief is this pin was made like the run of the recent yankee pins I.E. Joe pepitone, elston howard, and the only PM10 met pin of Ed Kranepool. I believe the were made in the late70s early 80s. Sells around 60-110 dollars.
Pictures added notice the style of printing on the pins. All these pins were made much later (70s80s) then when they played.

Thanks, Al! FWIW, the file name of my pic was "mays72," so maybe it is circa 1972.

I have another Mays pin to ask you about. Pics tomorrow.

Could be Rob 72 to me might be a little early for it but this run of these lasted awhile. It does seem the Mays was harder to get, That Dom Di Maggio is very common sells for about 5 bucks!

There is a Bobby Thomson in that "set" as well, is there not?

How about these of Mays? The one I have (yellow on neck, with staining) is 2.25"
