The Chicago White Sox are an American Major League Baseball team affiliated with the American League. Originally founded as a minor league team in 1894, the Chicago White Sox were initially known as the Sioux City, Iowa Cornhuskers before moving to Chicago as a major league team with the new name, The White Stockings. The team's final name change to the White Sox' became official in 1904.

In the 1960s, potato chip companies like Crane Potato Chips sold bags of chips containing an MLB memorabilia pin. These pins could be collected and redeemed for a fitting prize - a baseball! Crane Potato Chips, originally founded in 1928 as Licek Potato Chip Co., operated out of Decatur, Illinois. Each baseball pin has DECATUR, ILL. proudly stamped on the backside.
