Football Pin Display

[vintagesportflips]

Hey guys,

After looking at the many pin displays shown on net54 over the past year or so, I had been trying to figure out how to best display my Philadelphia Eagles pin collection. Nothing really valuable, and nothing pre-war, with a couple dating to WWII era, and dating to as late as the 1980s, but it one of the many type of Eagles collectables that I try to pick up any that I don't have. I used to have them displayed in butterfly/riker cases, and had them hung on the wall, but they weren't firm enough to hang very easily.
Recently my dad picked up a large antique 40 inch by 30 inch frame that had corkboard in it. He painted the gold frame black for me and the corkboard green for me. I then screwed in the tiniest hook eyes I could find, and individually pinned each pin into place. I am very happy with the outcome, and am happy to get the pin collection up on the wall and out of storage.
