Vtg Spalding Tournament Plus Champions Pin | Baseball Softball Bat Award

A vintage enamel award pin or tie tack from the sporting goods brand Spalding. The pin's distinctive design is shaped like a crest or shield, with the unmistakable silhouettes of three baseball/softball bats protruding from the sides, confirming the sport. The pin is marked "TOURNAMENT PLUS SPALDING CHAMPIONS". This was an award given out at a local or regional baseball or softball tournament (consistent with its origin in a bin of little league pins), celebrating the champions who used Spalding's "Tournament Plus" equipment. It is a gold-tone, enamel-filled collectible in good condition with some flaws from age.
