Thanks so much for posting!!
Great information, guys! Do you know of any Giants, Andy?

(Like I need something else to look for)

CUBS - LADE
CUBS - LOWERY
CUBS - REICH
CUBS - RUSH
CUBS - SMALLEY
INDIANS - VERNON

I had a Washington Senators SS Sam Dente at one time, and have perhaps seen another Washington player or two. Dente for sure, with yellow plastic.

Well I’m so glad that mystery is solved. I’m rather surprised that Dr Pepper wasn’t mentioned on the chip.

Default 1950 Dr. Pepper Baseball Photo Key Chains

So cool these finally have an identification!

I am aware of three more -

Al Kozar, Washington Senators
Bob Feller, Cleveland Indians
Satchel Paige, Cleveland Indians

There are pics of each on worthpoint along with Mickey Vernon already shown.

I purchased the Satchel Paige on eBay about 5yrs ago.

Would love to find a Bob Feller for my collection.

The hunt goes on!

I'm not surprised. My guess after looking at the order form for a variety of items is that these weren't made exclusively for Dr. Pepper. I'll bet Dr. Pepper just found them available in the marketplace and ordered a quantity.

You’re probably right. Whoever the vendor was who came up with the idea of using them as a hanger on pinbacks was genius.
