Custom Lapel Pins: The Perfect Collector’s Item

Collecting lapel pins is a hobby that many people love and enjoy around the world.

For some collectors it is a way to connect with other people who share the same interest or the same enthusiasm, while for others is more personal and maybe just an individual challenge.

Popular collectible lapel pins are sports pins, olympic pins, flag pins, political pins, Disney pins, etc.

We found this article online about an unusual collection of photos, stuffed animals, lapel pins and much more that is going to be auctioned, but, what make this collection special is that all the items display bulldogs!

For more than 30 years, Sam Seidman, who lived in the Gov. Samuel Walker McCall Mansion in Waltham, Mass., collected all things bulldog. Upon his death two years ago, friends contacted Hampton auctioneer Harvey Webber, of H.G. Webber Antiques & Auctions, to liquidate Seidman's estate.

It took Webber two years to create a catalogue of the more than 1,000 items and prepare them for auction. The auction, held at the Galley Hatch Conference Center on Route 1, began Saturday and will continue all day Sunday starting around 9 a.m. Items range in value from just a few dollars to thousands, Webber said, and include lapel pins, diamonds and table place settings. – Seacoastonline.com
