Dan...

I located the old Tigers vs. Giants Pennant! Mine was for an apparent exhibition game played on June 21, 1915. Something called "Overland Day" played at Swayne Field.




Interestingly, there was an "Overland Day" at Swayne Field the year before (on June 23, 1914). But this one involved the Cubs and Athletics. Below is the Pennant... check out those awesome and ancient mascots!



Edited, just to add that Swayne Field in Toledo, OH was home to the Minor League Mud Hens from 1909 to 1955.
