It's interesting that I've never seen one of these - the silk screen would have had to have been completely different i.e. they didn't just print full size graphics on a smaller pennant. It also appears this one never had color, other than the shoes. I've looked at it closely and I don't think it's a case of the color just fading out. BTW - do we know who made these left handed batter pennants?
Nice pickup. I have a reverse find.

I picked up this 1940s Tigers Pennant. It's a little faded in a few spots but I've not come across it before. Mike Egner's book only shows a 3/4 version of this pennant. Anyone else have or come across a full size version?
