It looked pretty incredible. I wasn’t able to go so I’m living vicariously through the photos.

Today’s pick ups…

The Musial was a gift from my mom who found it at the large antique show in Northern Virginia today.

The USC Rose Bowl pin and the McDonalds NBA Hoops pin were super inexpensive finds from a local antique store today.

Quick pickup from the National.... I had not seen this Pirates Pinback before, and was hoping it might be somewhat scarce (I didn't pay a lot, so won't be too disappointed if it's common). I don't see any examples on ebay, which may be a good sign.

Questions for the Pin Gurus....

1. Is this a pretty rare one?
2. How old is it ... Late 40s? Early 50s?

It's an uncommon image of the Pirates Mascot, that I hadn't seen. Thanks in advance for any help with this one.

For what it’s worth, I’ve never seen this particular pin before. Have seen a Pirate with a knife in his teeth, but not with the hat. Nice pickup.

Something about that Pittsburgh font just says 1930s to me.

I’m more inclined to say the 1950s.
