Great post and great pennant. Only one I've ever seen in 25 years of collecting!

I love getting your pennant knowledge, Mark! Your story of this series reminded me of a group on ebay from maybe 10 years ago. I got the NY Giants one. Some went for a bit of money, others for nothing. I think the seller had a complete set of both leagues. I have a picture somewhere of all he had (would be happy to dig it up if anyone is interesting). These pennants supposedly were a CUBAN issue. Without digging mine out, I think they are all about 20 inches long.
