Any One Collect Pins?

[whiteymet]

Hi Guys:

I don't collect Mets pins but can anyone tell me what set this 3 1/2" pin came from?

If anyone has a nice copy of the 1986 Baseball Star button of Dave Kingman and is willing to part with it let me know.

These are from WorthPoint. I would have figured they were a 1969 issue but the odd inclusion of Marshall puts them at 1970 or less likely 1971. No idea who made them.

I can tell you that I'm near 100% sure that a Nolan Ryan does not exist to this set. I've never heard/seen one in 48 years of collecting Nolan.
But, that being said, if anyone has ever come across one, I would love to know if one is out there.

I know that the late 70's-early 80's numbered Sports Photo Pins are not at all popular and have virtually no mention here, but I have some mysterious ones that I was wondering if anyone else has any or if they know something about them. On the main series the highest number that I am aware of is #400, but I have seven Cubs pins that are from late 1984-early 1985, the format is different, and the numbers jump to high 700's-low 800's. Other than one of the Sandberg's they are high quality made. I have only seen Cubs. Does anyone know anything about these or have one from a different team? There is also a Ron Cey and a Bob Dernier but I don't have those. A board member graciously sold me the Durham.

These are a little different but came out in 1978 from Sports Pin Assoc.

Another mystery! I have never seen these with the white autographs.
