I recently picked up this pin in a lot and was wondering if it was a reproduction or not. It's 1 3/4 inches with a black back and no union label. I haven't been able to find another one like it. I'd appreciate any input from those who are more knowledgeable about pins than I am. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Thank you for your response!! Here's another picture of the back,hopefully better than the first.

Pic is a little blurry could use a better pic of the back but from what I see looks good.. Size? 1 3/4 ? That was Baltimores first spring training in Yuma... Town really rolled out the red carpet for them so a pin like that would have really fit the time period...

Jim ,
I believe that pin is for the Clemson Tigers Baseball team, not the Detroit Tigers... I have seen it before..

Apparently, they made the "black box" pins for football, too. News to me.

When I searched for these on WorthPoint I ran across Plunkett several times, I think there was one of a soccer player but I can't remember his name.

I don't think they made many of them.

That Pats jersey is great!

#1 of 3x shadow boxes - took about 2-months to get the 'right' mix/fit.

Thought I would share!

Great job! I’m with Al, my old eyes need a larger photo.

There is a Al Kaline 1968-69 Detroit Tigers Iron-On Transfer promo pin that matches my Ron Santo 1969 Chicago Cubs Iron-On Transfer promo pin in the upper left corner, I didn't know the Kaline existed.
