The Crane's Potato Chip Pins were distributed by Crane's throughout the 1960s. The pins have very colorful fronts comprised of team names and logos, and are stamped on the back with the logo of Crane's Potato Chips in Decatur, Illinois. These two sets of 20 different team buttons issued in 1964 and '65 include many NRMT examples. They measure one inch in diameter with 1964 being gold red and blue and the 1965 examples being chrome red and blue. Each individual pin is encased in its own coin-holder, and each set is contained in its own labeled frame. Teams include the Kansas City A's, Milwaukee Braves, Houston Colt 45s, and more.
