Mike R.
The larger pins are 3.5 inches. The only other ones that size I know of are the Cubs (with "Go Go" like the White Sox pin), a White Sox without the "Go Go", and another Dodger with blue letters instead of red. They are shown in Muchinsky's book, but I have never seen them for sale. Being a huge Cubs fan, I would love to have the large Cubs variety.

Pinback mania!!
Here are a few vintage pinbacks of pitchers that threw no-hitters.
BTW, here is my year-end shameless plug: I'm still looking for nice pinback examples of Johnny Vander Meer and Bob Feller. Help a fellow net54 collector out if you have anything that will feed my passion (addiction)! I also threw in some circa 1969 Amazin' Mets pinbacks. Enjoy and Happy New Year!

Nolan Ryan pinback study 1973-1993
Here are some of the pinbacks out of my advanced Nolan Ryan collection.
Of special note are the following rare Ryan pinbacks: The giant 1973 Nolan Ryan button which was sold at So Cal's May Co. department store. $1.25 could have bought you this beauty in 1973. This is the only known example. Bonus points for the price tag that's still attached to the back. The Ryan 3" button with the shade in his eyes is one of about 3 examples. This was briefly sold at Anaheim Stadium in 1974. The Rangers era vendor pinbacks were worn by Arlington Stadium employees after Nolan got his 300th win, 5,000th strikeout and 7th no-hitter. These are all VERY tough. The regional pinbacks featuring Nolan as an Astro and Ranger from Bristol, CT are extremely scarce. The oddball Rangers era group of pinbacks are all very limited and challenging to find. Once again, Happy New Year to all of you on net54!! Have a great 2012!

Very nice collection Scott. Thank you for posting it. I believe you really illustrate how there is something for everyone in pinbacks. It is a very interesting niche with limitless options for both the beginner and advanced collector. I particularly LOVE the unknown aspect (new discoveries from time to time) and the fact that it isn't about the grade. I for one will NEVER purchase a graded pin. It simply isn't worth the premium.
