3.5" - Cincinnati Reds - 1961 N.L. Champs - Pin
Just picked this pin up recently and I think it fits this topic perfectly.
I've always seen the pin by itself with no ribbons ect... I was skeptical about buying it at first but now I'm thinking it may be the real deal. As you can see from the photos, it came with a cardboard backer. It appears someone bought it and put it away or a dealer didn't sell it because of the imperfections. OR someone Frankensteined it! However, the dealer I bought it from doesn't typically deal in pins so I think it definitely has that going for it. Either way its very striking... Looking forward to hearing your thoughts / comments

Hi Chris,
Yes definetely a Frankenstein job on the ribbons. (new) The pin I believe is real as it has a mate to it with the yankees name. If you didnt pay to much for it lets say 10-20 dollars it was a good deal. Are the ribbons just taped on in the back?

No, they are glued to the bottom portion of the pin.

I really enjoy pins; just gotten into them in the last two years. This is probably my favorite pin issue:
 I generally prefer the pin w/o any crap attached to it. I can see where a collector who is making a display would enjoy having the crap on the pin, but I am very concerned with counterfeiting. I only have one with adornment and I did not pay extra for it:  Of course, I would have paid plenty extra for what's attached to this one:
