Questions: what was the heyday of 3/4 pennants? 30s-40s? Was there ever a time when the 3/4 was the most prevalent size? Same questions for oversized...heyday? were they ever the most common size?

I think in the 30s, yes. I just saw a clip on Twitter, from Flagstaff Films ( a great follow), they post clips of old home movies at the ballpark. Today they put up a clip from the ‘36 series and briefly caught a glimpse of a vendor walking the aisles with pennants of this style.
