I only collect pennants and know virtually nothing about every other collectible. But I happened to pick these up for a decent price recently, simply because they would look nice on display. I actually had the Angels for a long time - I think I bought it for a dollar at a yard sale years ago - and didn’t know they were made for every team. The logos put these around 1972 and I bought a lot 23 of these. They are 8x11 inches on heavy cardboard stock. No idea who made them and how they were sold. If anyone has the Indians, let me know!

I'm not an expert but I think they might be 1974 fleer big signs. i have a Pirate one that size that looks like that.

Jim beat me to it

Here's a lot of the '74 Fleers on ebay

Jim is correct.

Here is a group on ebay currently…

Awesome … Thanks guys! I just found the Indians on eBay!

I thought the year might be ‘72 due to the lower-case “a” Angels, but I guess Fleer just used an old logo.

Now I notice in the current eBay lot, it has (unlike mine) the “big A” Angels logo. Interesting!

There’s an Indians on ebay but it’s way over priced. A cheaper one shouldn’t be too hard to find.

I just found one for $15 which seemed okay. Thanks!
