AnonymousI sent the pin back to the seller yesterday because it did'nt have the Balfour stamping on the back..The seller was very good about this, although could'nt understand why the stamping ment SO much to me.
I found it interesting, and a little disturbing, that your Red Sox 2004 pin has no stamping on the reverse. All quality(higher cost) pins should have some kind of makers mark to distinguish it..
The design on the 2000 pin I sent back was Balfours. But I wonder if the new maker of these pins produced some without a mark?. Things can get confusing when Balfour produces pins well in advance, as in the case of that White Sox pin..
Oh well I am much happier and a little wiser for the whole experience..Thanks Folks Pcelli60
