Astros pennant
I was wondering what people think about the possibility of the attached pennant being a Houston Astros pennant. It has been listed on ebay a few times without anyone buying, so I don't think I am outing anything.
Argument for Astros: see the attached picture of one of the Astros hats from 1965 spring training. The star on the hat is a pretty close match. And many other Astros logos have a star (often with something over it). So, star = Astros is not totally out there. And I've never seen a star like this associated with the university of Houston.
Argument against Astros: It doesn't say Astros anywhere. Texas is the lone star state, so something with a single star from Texas doesn't have to mean Astros.
I have seen this pennant wtih red felt and black felt. Not Astros colors, but there are a lot of Houston Colt 45s pennants with red or black felt.
I'm curious to hear what people think.
