Default Frank "Noodles" Hahn 1906 Stenzel's pinback

I've wanted to add this Noodles Hahn 1906 Stenzel's pin to my no-hit pitcher collection, but they never seem to enter the hobby.

I won this pin in the Hake's Auction, but it was a battle to say the least.

Noodles Hahn is an important pitcher for my collection, because he hurled the 1st no-hitter in the 1900's.
He was also a pretty cool cat because he pitched batting practice everyday for the Cincinnati Reds until well into his 70's.

Here is a picture of the pinback that I just won and a photo from 1947 of Noodles, Vandy and Ewell Blackwell (all Reds no-hit pitchers) celebrating after Blackie's no hitter on 6/18/47.
