Stickpin Help Needed -

**gorrelljmg** · 07-25-2015, 02:54 AM

I need some help with these stickpins. I have my doubts based on the straight pin and the attachment point.
The only one that is maker-marked is the Sports Festival pin, and it is marked with an M 1/6.
I know there are a lot of stickpin aficionados out there, and I appreciate any thoughts.

I do not like any of them-they are very poorly and crudely cast-unlike the originals. The pins are brass and are not knurled and the attachments are crudely done. None of them have any fine detailing apparent at all. I would pass on all of them.

Don't waste your money on these...

I do not claim any expertise in this area but do own 50-60 stickpins. I would have to agree with Wagriff and Glenn on these. None of the original ones that I have or have seen have this type of pin attachment and the detail is quite poor.

Hello Stig,

I have posted several on a thread here a few years ago. I can not seem to find the thread yet to link to. When I am back home and have some free time in the next couple weeks I will try to get some photos to share with you.
