Ernie Banks, known as "Mr. Cub" or "Mr. Sunshine" during his 18-year Hall of Fame career with the Chicago Cubs, might not have recognized himself by the more formal "Ernest Banks." This rare pin is from early in his career, with an image of Banks smiling in his Cub hat over his formal name. This marks the time before Banks became known as just plain "Ernie" to his adoring fans at Wrigley Field. The 1-1/4" diameter pin is in VG-EX condition with some mild rusting on the back.
