Hey wait a minute Rob I thought you only collected giants pins? Holding out on us I see..... I also like this version of the crossed bats pins..... I have seen them come in a straight pin version and a bayonette style pin back.....

Anyone familiar with this Cubs pinback? I purchased it last night for my growing collection. Those weird, googly eyes were calling to me.

Yep. There's what's on the wall, what's in 16 other cases and what's scattered around. There are about 50 other pins I am searching for. Some would be a matter of luck to find; others a matter of luck and money.

That’s impressive! If I had the patience, I’d count my Cubs pins. If…..

It took maybe 10 minutes…a lot of the cases hold standard amounts…12, 18, 24, 32, etc. Do it. You’ll be glad you did.

OK Rob I did it. I came up with 456 Cubs pins well short of your total. Of course I probably have well over 1000 non-Cubs pins so my total pin number is higher. 😜
