When I look these pins up they are usually labeled as either "1932 Orbit Gum (PR3)" or "1932-1934 Orbit Gum (PR3)".

I know there are lots of opinions on this board...any thoughts on which text I should go with?
I would just go with the 1932 Orbit Gum (PR3).

Also, just a thought on the presentation. Right now you have the pins in rows of 7 across, and end up with only 4 pins in the bottom row. If it were me, I would move the 4 pins on that bottom row to center them on the display. Or maybe better, reduce each row to 6 pins across and you'll come out to 6 pins on every row and make it uniform. Just a thought.
