The 2001 Mellon Bank Button Set:




Storyline 2001:

In 2001, halfway through the season, Citizens Bank took over Mellon
Bank and became the third sponser of the button program.

Not wanting to "wait until next year", Citizens produced bank buttons
for the last three home games to supplement the Mellon Bank versions
that were already produced for those games.
