Kyle and Gary,

A sometimes poster on this thread (not for awhile though) sent me pics of both the ‘15 Phillies and the ‘18 Red Sox but he asked me not to share. Maybe he reads this and will reconsider …

Cloak and dagger… :cool:

I agree it was a pretty good buy. I would have paid that but I wasn't sure about it's legitimacy. The seller could have run an iron over the pennant and it would have presented A LOT better. For me the colors were different than other examples of the Dodgers pennant and I just wasn't sure. (Live and Learn <Sigh>)

Erik, with regards to the 1915 and 1918 Grommet pennants, it'd really be great to see them.

It's a logo the Raiders used in the early 60's. It's a strange logo but I guess with not much money in the early AFL days, graphics left a lot to be desired!

It was listed with a $500 Buy it Now price but someone bid insteady of buying it outright. They guessed wrong.

Haha.... no horse, and no hook-hand. Just a well-covered receiver reaching up for a pass. Agree it's an unusual logo, but still more imaginative and far superior to the simplistic and "corporate" looking NFL logos of today.

Take the de-evolution of the Rams logo, for example...

Ouch...Don't get me started on that one. I don't think it can get worse than the 2020 rebrand. They had it so right from the early 50s through the 70s. But it's too easy of a money grab to pass up. They know the suckers will re-buy everything with the new logo on it no matter how bad it is.

Now look what you did...You got me started. :D

Regarding the Raiders pennant...It's weird to me that the logo was still in use in 1965 yet that pennant is extremely rare. The Raiders have four "logo" pennants with the AFL trademark (well five if you count the white version Randy shared), more than any other team. They must've realized that logo looked like crap on a pennant and went with the more common Raider head with crossed swords instead...which may be the most common of the Raiders AFL logo pennants and yet sells as if it's very rare.

Wowser... $11,700 with the BP....

I was watching that one. The price was incredible. I think that price was due to the condition - which is pretty stellar. I also think that REA did a good job describing it and attributing it to 1947.

There was one at Mile High last week that was much more reasonably priced....but with more wear.

I was surprised that the other Jackie Pennant at REA didn't go higher. https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...?itemid=177268

I think the one in Mile High would've benefitted from better pictures. The black background didn't so it any favors.
