This pin set of 36 is apparently a reprinted set and is checklisted here in order to help collectors put a fair value on the pins that they are buying, selling and trading. These are frequently mistaken for the 1969 issue after which they are patterned. There is no indication that this set was authorized by the Major League Baseball Player's Association. Each pin is 7/8" in diameter. This 36 pin set contains 18 pins each of National League players and American League players. This unnumbered set is ordered below alphabetically within league, American Leaguers (1-18) and National Leaguers (19-36). The outer bands of the pins are red for American League players and blue for National League players. The pictures on the pins are black and white, head only photos. All of the players in the set had retired before 1984 and many had retired well before 1969. The line "c 1969 MLBPA MFG. in U.S.A." appears at the bottom of each pin, i.e., no reference to Winona as with the 1969 set. [Collapse]
