1956 Topps Baseball Pin Ted Williams Red Sox NEAR MINT

1956 Topps Baseball Pin Ted Williams "Red Sox" NEAR MINT

Very Scarce in High Grade Condition

One of Topps first specialty issues, the 60-pin set of ballplayers issued in 1956 contains a high percentage of big name stars which, combined with the scarcity of the pins, makes collecting a complete set extremely challenging. Compounding the situation is the fact that some of teh pins are seen far less often than others, though the reason is unknown. Chuck Stobbs, Hector Lopez and Chuck Diering are unaccountably scarce. Measuring 1 1/8 in diamter, teh pins utilize the same portraits found on the 1956 Topps baseball cards. The photos are set against a solid background. The pins were sold in a box picturing the Ted Williams pin,with a piece of bubble gum for five cents.
