For The Love of the Game: Trading and Collecting Custom Baseball
Pins
By Caryn Smith © 2011, All Rights Reserved
There's no denying it: Americans love collecting things. The
treasures we label as keepsakes add unique flourishes to our
personalities and significant meaning to our lives.
For the parents and players of Little League baseball, this
phenomenon is just as prominent. However, it isn't baseball
cards, gloves, bats, hats, jerseys or autographs. This particular
group is passionate about collecting and trading customized
baseball pins.
As far as parents are concerned, these tiny decorative mementos
are much more than the sum of their parts. To the teams and their
individual players they represent a symbol of unity, pride and
collective hard work. These pins directly reflect passion,
determination, relentlessness, devotion and universal message of
good sportsmanship.
Trading pins are as unique as the teams they reflect. They can
range in size (2 inches to as wide as 4 inches), color and
presentation. Many pins highlight a team's name, their hometown,
the age group, gender, team colors, the team's mascot and the
list goes on.
Just as British football fans proudly display their club's colors
via scarves and flags, parents of Little League Baseball players
utilize trading pins to show their support. Players, on the
other hand, trade and collect pins for regular season games,
tournaments and the Little League World Series, not just as a
show of good faith, but a kind of unspoken love for the game and
universal friendship.
When it comes to collecting and trading these pins for their
personal collections, players are only interested in those with
the wildest and most inventive designs. Whether it's a bat-shaped
pin with the team's name emblazoned across it, or a glove/hat
combination with the team's mascot in the background, players
love trading the "cool-looking" pins almost as much as they love
playing the game.
With each incoming season, pin making companies are bombarded
with massive orders. This level of demand means prices and
service can suffer. But if you look carefully, you'll find a few
companies that provide exceptional value. Everything from free
design services to multiple colors at no extra charge, to
expedited production and free delivery are available for smart
shoppers.
Even though these trading pins are highly sought after by avid
enthusiasts, when the dust settles, these small pictorial pieces
of America's pastime are seen as endearing accessories to
windbreakers, hats, lapels, sweatshirts and even ear lobes.
They're small metallic acts of creative expression for those that
look forward to springtime with giddy anticipation and serious
ambition.
The players have dreams of becoming the next Alex Rodriguez,
Cliff Lee or Johnny Damon and winning a World Series. The
parents, on the other hand, stand holding these trading pins with
an affectionate grip, watching their dreams growing up right
before their eyes.
