1904 Boston Americans - Blue Label Cigar Pin set of 16

[Ribbens]

Looking for an estimated price for a complete set of 16 pins, very rare to find a set.

About a $1000 for common players and the auction price for jimmy Collins was $1880. I would take a guess around 15-20k+

Any Cy Young sales anyone aware of ?

Do you have any of these pins or the set? Any to show?

[benchod]

Well since this thread was/is going nowhere thought I would show mine
Also there was a Jimmy Collins auctioned off in the past 12-18 months

Wow. Beautiful Cy Young.....I had a common that I got $1000idh for. I would assume a Young would bring $5-$8K or more if the right bidders get into the fray.....

Thanks, Tom
I like the Horner portrait of Young on the pin.
i was hoping others would post pics of more.
Maybe posted on the wrong side?

That Young is amazing!

Hopefully some others can share some pictures too.

Anyone have a checklist?
