Default An Interesting Pennant

Posted By: Mark

I would love to hear from Dave Bushing or Dave Eskenazi on this one, as it truly is an enigma. It took all the restraint I had, NOT to go for it (as I could not pinpoint it to Baseball either...)

I know the ebay seller listed it that way (for obvious reasons), but the Tigers left Tacoma after the 1904 season, and did not return until the '30s. If this can be documented as a 1904 Pennant, then Bushing did amazingly well on the price (single-season pennant, championship year, and perhaps the oldest documented PCL pennant extant).

But this Pennant looks more to be from the 'teens, which poses more questions than it does answers. I think it is a longshot at best, that this one was from 1904 (though I could be wrong). If either of the "Daves" can shed some light, we would be most appreciative!
