The Pin/Button is almost certainly that of the Collinsville, CT semi-pro baseball club. The town team played such teams as the Cuban Giants (NY), Pittsfield (MA), Tarrington Y.M.C.A., Forestville, Waterbury Jeffersons, Coe Brass of Tarrington, and for this double header held on 7/5 the Hartford Royals (Typewriter Co).
The team had new grounds built for the 1909 season and it was a big event for the July 5th game. The game was not held on July 4th as that fell on a Sunday and there often were laws held on games being played on Sunday. So, a double header was held (10am, 4pm) on Monday. Simond's Military Band were part of the celebration.
The 1909 Collinsville Ball Club was managed by Louis E Thayer. Some of the players who definitely saw action were Rainault (C/P), Olds (P), Lambert (2B, C), O'Leary (P), Brown (C) and Gudski (LF), T.J. Myers (SS), Thiery (1B), Jenkins (CF), Curry (3B)
