1992 Ace Novelty MVP Pin

Year: 1992
What: Ace Novelty Co MVP Major League Collector Pin  (92130)

I featured Robin's 1990 Ace pin late last year.  I ended up picking his 1992 pin from the latest wfbookman Yount auction on eBay a few weeks ago, the same place I got my 1990 pin.  The 1992 pins come attached to a smaller backing and don't feature a few baseball card.  The pins are about the same size, but this year's pin features an action shot.  The checklist has a nice selection of stars to choose from, although Robin is the only Brewer in the bunch.

1990 Ace MVP Pin

Year: 1990
What: ACE Novelty MVP Pin
Full card w/ 1990 Score 

I ended up picking this up along with my copy of Baseball America about a month back.  This was another purchase from Yount megaseller wfbookman off of eBay. I had been looking for one of these and it seems like all of a sudden the market was flooded.  And not just the pins but full unopened retail packaging.  This looks fresh from the box as the punch out for the hanging display is still intact.  As a bonus the pin was packaged with  Robin's 1990 Score card. I know from other examples that there is nothing on the back of the pin card.  

There are a ton of these to collect and every team has at least 4 players to choose from.  Might have to chase those other 3 Brewers to complete the set.  Robin is also included in the 1991 and 1992 Ace pin sets.
