2025 Fall Classic

Sold Price: $1200.00

Presented is a complete set of 1922 Kolb?s Mother?s Bread pinbacks, one of the more elusive and regionally treasured bakery-issued baseball collectibles of the early twentieth century. Issued during the Deadball-to-Liveball transition era, these colorful pins embody the charm and promotional ingenuity of period advertising while reflecting baseball?s rapidly growing place in American culture. The offered set is nice, all the pins have the original paper backings. Anchored by HOFers Chief Bender and Jesse Haines, these appear to be a clean Ex Plus overall. The set?s completion is its defining strength. Surviving examples from Kolb?s Mother?s Bread are seldom encountered in groups, let alone as a fully assembled run, making the offered lot particularly desirable to advanced pinback and pre-war advertising collectors. The bright lithographic presentation, period typography, and compact format give the pieces exceptional display appeal, while their bakery-distribution origins firmly anchor them within the golden age of regional baseball ephemera.
