Default FS-1940's & 50's Pins etc from the estate of USA Softball hofer Vincent "Wee" Devitt

So I recently acquired several items from the estate of Vincent "Wee" Devitt

Wee is a member of the USA (ASA) softball hall of fame... He is best known for his time with the Raybesto (also an employee) brakettes and Cardinals (men's team)... The Brakettes are arguably the best Women's Softball team in the US, and Wee's managerial record of 370-39 netted him a hall of fame bid...

he was an employee of Raybestos and Sikorsky aircraft and managed both teams...

The third lot available consists of the following:
1-Red Little league pen with Base, Kind of beat up
2-little league baseball pin
3-little leage official baseball pin
4-Connecticut amateur softball hall of fame neck tie pin
5-US american softball association tie clasp
6-Amateur womens world softball keychain date 1974
7-National federation of Amateur Umpires token
8-1938-39 sbbl Basketball charm/tie clasm (stratford? Sikorsky? basketball league?
9-1965 women world softball tournament token
10-Very small screw on pin (missing back) of a basketball player

Raybestos related material: famous for making roller skate wheels back in the 40's and 50's but now focus on break pads...
1-lot of 6 Raybestos logoed coasters in original box
2-1974 Raybestos acrylic paperweight including a full dollar
3-Raybestos logoed tie pin and clasp
4-Raybestos lofoed pin (skate with wings)
