Anyone else a little shocked with how much this pin sold for last night in Hakes?

The Geneva Cubs were a Minor League team of the Cubs from 1977 to 1993, I think that pin is much older than 1977.

The Geneva Cubs have been suggested to me as well but like you I feel that the pinback is older than 1977. That’s why I’m questioning whether or not it’s the Geneva Cubs.

I wonder if there was a specific year or date range when the “poke your eye out” pin was replaced with a safer setup.

Just a rough guess, I believe that style of pin was popular from the late 1800s to about the 1950s or so
