Managed to acquire this scarce Cubs pennant from the 1940s. Seems to use the same batter as on the Playball pennant, and the same font as the 1945 World Series pennant. Same manufacturer perhaps?

Baseball's appeal isn't complicated or confusing. It's about the beauty of the game; it's about heroes and family and friends; it's about being part of something larger than yourself, about tradition---receiving it and passing it; and it's about holding on to a bit of your childhood.
