This is a note left for posterity to help anyone who stumbles across a Beatniks decipher why there are two different Beatniks in the Pinside database and why you might want to link to one rather than the other.
It seems that there were two versions of this pin, one made for the US and one made to be exported to Italy.
Beatniks seems to be the US version.
Beatniks (Export) seems to be the Italian version.
I have edited the descriptions of each pin and will go back and tag the US version for any posts that may have accidentally referenced the export version. I would propose that, going forward, you tag to the US version for any comments.
