Years ago when these were dirt cheap and I was stupid for not buying as many as I could find, I took one apart. If I remember correctly, the one I took apart was fairly well stuck together and I had to be careful not to dent the buttons while pulling them apart.
I also remember that when I DID finally pull them apart, that there was some scratches on the edges and paint missing because they had been together for so long and they were so tightly pushed together.

Oops,
As far as the original question goes, I don't think the three missing teams will be found unless there are a larger number of player buttons that haven't been found yet.
The Yankees and the Cubs were in the 1932 World Series so they might have been left out because they were already well known (or the expense of signing the players were too high) and the Pirates were in-state rivals of the Phillies so they were probably left out because of that.
