This is a great collection of 1920’s World Series Press Pins. All three pins have red, white or blue enamel decoration and all have their original screw backs which are stamped Dieges and Clust, the manufacturer of the pins. Each is uniquely shaped, the 1923 round, the 1924 is an octagon and the 1928 has a decorative wave pattern encircling it. They all also have their own unique patterns and decorations, demonstrating the craftsmanship that went into each year’s design. The quality of the collection is EX with some minor wear, but nothing which detracts from the beauty of each intricately patterned pin.
