A Brief History of Pin Collecting

Pins have been a beloved tradition of collectors and enthusiasts worldwide for over a century. First popularized at the inaugural 1896 Olympics, pin trading is a popular activity that has become a global phenomenon, with traders from all over the world coming together to exchange and showcase their collections. Pins come in all shapes, sizes, and designs. They are a super fun collectible, transforming everyday items such as backpacks, shelves, clothing, lanyards, and even pin books into canvases for your unique collecting journey.
