"A natural tie-in with the baseball
season" this baseball top, was made by
the charm manufacture, Paul A. Price
Co. of NYC. The plastic tops were made
for vending machines, and were also offered with silver
plating. The Paul A. Price company
manufactured kerosene lamps, plastic
toys, and novelties, and began to
produce charms in 1947.
A
complete game of baseball may be played
with this hexagon shaped, 3/4" diameter
top. Six plays are indicated on each
side of the top; Single(1B),
Double(2B), Triple(3B), Home Run(HR),
and two outs. The game can be played by
1-9 persons represented on each team.
Play begins by spinning the top, and
scored by the side the top comes to
rest. All regular rules of baseball
apply, each half inning comes to an end
after the top lands on the out side 3
times. The bottom of the top reads "PAT
PEND"
