Discussion: Design Ideas For Net54 Pins at the National

[peterose4hof]

Looking forward to seeing what creative designs everyone comes up with.

If no good ideas come forth, the backup plan is a photo of Leon in a net54 bikini.

Thank God!

I just got a new pair of prescription glasses and would hate for them to melt this soon.

Screw my vacation plans, I'm going to the National just for one of those!

Awhile back I made this post http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=219861 and it was quite popular so I made a design based of the photo from it.

It would be awesome to have it be picked as the pin for this year.

This is the pin we are going with. Thanks to Max for the design and Brian Dwyer (REA) for helping disburse them at the National.

Those are going to look awesome. Any way for us not lucky enough to be going to the National to get one?

[Leon]

As has been done in the past we can make a list of folks who want one and I can make sure one gets sent to them. It will be in first come, first served order, of folks visiting the National first (and that is where they will be anyway) and then folks who ask for one here, to my email at leon@net54baseball.com, until the supply runs out. FIFO ... But we have always had plenty for a first round of everyone who wants one in the past and I expect that to be the case this year too...

Thanks Leon!

Love the choice of Max's creation of the T206s overlay of the Giants' team photo.

Thanks to Leon, Chris, Max, and REA.

Looking forward to this year's National!

I suggest Lou Gehrig for this year's pin - either his 1933 or 1934 Goudey cards - or better yet, put images of both cards on the pin. BTW, June 2nd, was the 75th anniversary of Gehrig's death.

or...the 75th Anniversary of .406 and The Streak!

Is that too modern?

[bigfanNY]

I second Val's Lou Gehrig suggestion. 34 Green background leaves room for net 54 or use portrait and put net54 says on the bottom ...

[clydepepper]

75th Anniversary of The Streak and .406 !

... and 1934 Goudey #37 would be my second choice.

[TheNightmanCometh]

Just slap a Net54 logo on this and call it a day...

A VERY WORTHWHILE CHOICE. ANNIVERSARIES SUCH AS THOSE ARE WORTHY OF BEING REMEMBERED. PERTINENT CARDBOARD HEROES, TOUCHING AS THEY DID PRE-WAR AND POST-WAR.

CAPITOL SELECTION. ---BRIAN POWELL

The Ted and Joe idea is awesome.

[edjs]

I know some of you guys are awesome at Photoshopping this stuff, I am not. This is just a rough way of showing my idea, so don't beat me up for my lack of technical skill:

That's a fantastic team photo and I really like how you combined it with the T206 cards. That explains why so many of the Giants players are wearing sweaters. Very cool!

[edjs]

Since it is in Johnny's town, how about a cool piece of T206 scrap? Speaking of which, where's Johnny?

[Dewey]

Print Net54 over this bad boy.

[abothebear]

I didn't know there were pins. That is cool. Are there any sgt pepper pins left?

How about a cut-out of Di Maggio's '38 big head Goudey with the Net54 logo on his cap?

edited: whoops, I didn't see that one had already been picked, very nice!
