Have you been searching for a TFT
Parade Pin from a past year?
Many people are looking for old TFT Pins, so
here is the latest news about what pins are available, and how to obtain
them, from our "Pin Lady" Linda.
Hi! Just a few lines from the
"Pin Lady".
I have checked and we still have pins
from the following years: 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1996, 2001,
& 2002. Please let people know that if they send a list of the
pins they need, along with a check ($3.00 per pin) made out to
"Chicagoland Toys for Tots Parade", I will send them via US
Mail. They can either send their requests & checks to the TFT P.O.
Box, or to my work address, SGS, 16130 Van Drunen Road, South
Holland, IL 60473 Attn: Linda.
Checks must have the person's name, address, phone number, and Driver's License number on them, and again must be made payable to "Chicagoland Toys For Tots Motorcycle Parade". Cost is $3.00 per pin regardless of number or years ordered. We are always looking to buy back pins from previous years. The most sought after pins being 1997, 1998, & 2000. We pay $3.00 per pin. They go into our inventory and are resold at $3.00 per pin. Regards, Lin
