In addition to the set being extended across several years, there are also multiple sets that seem to overlap in that time period. I will try to break them down as well as I can, with the relatively limited information I have, and try to put some order to the chaos.
In 1978, "Sports Photo Associates" began issuing two sets of numbered pins, three inches in diameter, full color, and based on uncut sheets found on eBay, they two sets were printed together for at least part of the run. One set featured contemporary players and managers, mostly featuring the individuals name, a facsimile signature and a small number. The other set had "Baseball Hall of Fame" arching across the top, in a sort of gothic calligraphy, and featured the players name and a number beginning with 'HF' and showed a copyright of either 1978 or 1981. The Hall of Fame set seems to have included 40 players as follows:| HF1 | Babe Ruth (1978) |
| HF2 | Lou Gehrig (1978) |
| HF3 | Jackie Robinson (1978) |
| HF4 | Hank Greenberg (1978) |
| HF5 | Lou Bourdeau (1978) |
| HF6 | Al Kaline (1978) |
| HF7 | Hank Aaron (1978) |
| HF8 | Yogi Berra (1978) |
| HF9 | Ernie Banks (1978) |
| HF10 | Eddie Mathews (1978) |
| HF11 | Whitey Ford (1978) |
| HF12 | Bob Feller (1978) |
| HF13 | Monte Irvin (1978) |
| HF14 | Roy Campanella (1978) |
| HF15 | Roberto Clemente (1978) |
| HF16 | Bob Lemon (1978) |
| HF17 | Sandy Koufax (1978) |
| HF18 | Willie Mays |
| HF19 | Bob Gibson (1981) |
| HF20 | Duke Snider |
| HF21 | Robin Roberts |
| HF22 | Joe DiMaggio (1981) |
| HF23 | Ted Williams |
| HF24 | Mickey Mantle (1981) |
| HF25 | Brooks Robinson |
| HF26 | Frank Robinson |
| HF27 | Hank Aaron |
| HF28 | Juan Marichal |
| HF29 | George Kell |
| HF30 | Walter Alston |
| HF31 | Jack Brickhouse |
| HF32 | Harmon Killebrew |
| HF33 | Pee Wee Reese |
| HF34 | Luis Aparicio |
| HF35 | Don Drysdale |
| HF36 | ? |
| HF37 | Enos Slaughter |
| HF38 | John Mize |
| HF39 | Hoyt Wilhelm |
| HF40 | Lou Brock |
The other main set was numbered from '1' to at least '363'. The last two pins I've seen were of Pete Rose, and the second highest numbered was '344' and featured him in his Montreal Expos uniform (these can be seen over at 4192cards.com). Several players were included multiple times. In some cases, as with Dave Winfield and Pete Rose, with different teams. In other cases, players were included on multiple pins for the same team, including Reggie Jackson, Fred Lynn, George Brett and Johnny Bench. The Fleer Sticker Project features an interesting post about this set as the pins were available as part of a promotion on 1981 Fleer wax wrappers. The Sports Photo Associates also seems to have beena resource for photos for Fleer for their inaugural sets.

To help confuse matters, unnumbered pins were issued for the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets, Pirates and Phillies. These often feature the same photograph, but merely lack the small number on the front. There were also a set of 4-inch pins issued for teams featuring multiple players. Also pins 795 and up may not actually be part of the larger set.
