That 1939 Reds vs Yankees press pin sold for a pretty penny.

These come up constantly.
In fact there are about 10 listed now up for autction from a seller in Germany, from 1911 through 1945

They always seem to sell for more than a cheap replica should. Ebay has been notified, but I think they get away with it by not ever actually saying they are "original"
