Thanks Mike! I like the size of those boxes. Boy I would love to do a good buy or trade with some of the boys but it seems that I cant get Greg or Andy to let go anything!
 Here is one of my more recent pick ups and it did cost me a pretty penny!

Very nice Nellie Fox pin Al. That's a really tough one -- I remember seeing one in the Bill Mastro collection auction.

The one in the REA auction went way too cheap in my opinion and it even had the Mighty Mites Club card and newsletter with it.

Dan Yep that was my feeling exactly. When I won that lot I couldnt believe what it ended for. Rob and I are old friends and we talked about that pin as we know of only 2 that are around and this was one of them.

This one was actually on ebay and someone talked the seller into ending it early for $25. I immediately contacted the seller to let him know he just made a HUGE mistake by ending it for $25 (Sorry if I interfered with anyone in here, but I wasn't going to let this guy get ripped off like that)...the seller and I talked by phone over what he should do with the Mighty Mites club stuff and I pointed him to REA..I felt bad for the seller that these items went so cheaply compared to the Mastro pin, but at least he got more than $25 for it.

Dan,
I myself was very surprised at the price it finished for. Having the card and the membership booklet is a great help as it lets me and others know where this pin came from because I myself was in the dark as to why this pin was made and who were the mighty mites. After reading thru the booklet it all made sense! Dan also if you still have the mans info feel free the pass on my info I would love to talk to him about the pin. Al

 Boy, did I miss the boat on pin-backs years ago.  And Mike, seeing those terrific green walls again, reminded me that your skill as a craftsman is only rivaled by your keen eye for collecting. Both of which are really top-notch!

Hey Mike............The display looks great! I have that Tigers/Briggs Stadium pinback for your collection I mentioned before. I'll bring it over the next time 'the group' of Michiganders/Northern Ohioans gets together.
 Take care..............Matt

Here are three new pinback additions I am excited about. The Yankees is simply a classic design that was a steal on ebay. The Sock it to em is a very rare pin and another ebay bargain.
The 1940 Tigers (this is a World Series pin) was a garage sale find today for $4.00!!!!!!: It is a very tough pin to find and I'm thrilled.
