From a pub in downtown Thorold, 4 items from my pinback collection.
A promotional pin announcing Rogues Moon, a pirate themed strip appearing in the Chicago Tribune. Beside that is a Davy Crockett pin you could purchase on cards at department stores in the US. This pin is the 1 1/4 pin but there were smaller 7/8" pins with different davy crockett stages of life, like indian scout, statesman, indian fighter. The last 2 examples are 7/8" political pinbacks for Ike and Roosevelt campaigns, not sure on the campaign years but beleive these are pretty common pins. Got these as part of a trade, 77 pinbacks for 12 complete sets of non sport trading cards. Great deal. Traded goods made in the 90's for pinbacks c.1898 to 1950. So happy.
Cheers from the Overtime
