Last night was the 2002 Winter Olympic Games celebration event at the Kearns Olympic Oval. In addition to a wonderful Olympic Celebration Show on Ice featuring both past and future Olympians, there were athletes signing autographs, figure skating and speed skating clinics, a curling clinic, 2002 memorabilia displays and, of course, pin trading. One of my favorite 2002 Olympic posters was also on display, which is the goaltender pictured here.
There were several Olympic pin trading tables set up and well known traders such as Janet Grissom, Eileen Brennan and Dolan Hudson (pictured in the black baseball cap) were on hand to mesmerize the crowds with their pin displays and certainly to trade a few Olympic pins.
At the celebration I was able to trade for the two pins pictured here, each of which feature an Olympic hockey figure.
The pin on the right is the original silver skyline athlete pin of which there were 6000 made, and the pin on the left is another Salt Lake City skyline pin featuring a hockey pictogram of which there were only 2002 made. The first pin has a value of $10.00 USD, and the second has a value of $12.00 USD.
