That 1919 Reds pennant is awesome Perezfan! Also, I have never seen that 1940 Reds NL Champs pennant. Wow. Here is my pennant from the same series.

That is one sweet pennant, Tigerden! Looks so classy the way you've framed it. Double-scroll pennants like that are so tough to find, and yours from 1940 approaches "holy grail" status... especially for a Reds (or Tigers) Fan. I just love the look of that one...
Thanks for posting it! Regarding mine... yes, the 1919 pennant is insanely rare and desirable for obvious reasons. I just picked up the 1940 Pennant last month (on ebay of all places). Until then, I had never seen another like it either... and that's after 20 years of collecting these. So I have to believe it's a rare one as well. Last edited by perezfan; 11-04-2009 at 08:49 AM. |

It doesn't get any cooler than this if you're a Reds fan! It's a scoresheet/schedule printed between the 1869 and 1870 seasons. Check out the scores of some of the games. Not exactly pitchers' duels. Heritage Auctions sold it for $10,000 last month.

Jonathan - the scorecard is an awsomely cool item , but annoying nit-picker that I am , I have to point out that it has absolutely no relationship to the current Cincinnati Reds franchise, which began in the American Assoc. in 1882, and transfered to the NL in 1890.

Mark,
Aren't the Braves the descendant of the Red Stockings? |

George & Harry Wright did found the Boston NL franchise in 1876. They had been behind the Boston NA franchise in 1871-1875, but there was so much player turnover between 1875 and 1876, I don't think you could say they were exactly the same franchise. In 1871 the club included the Wrights and a few members of the Cincy team.
So, I don't think you could say that the 1876 Bos NL club is the same franchise as the 1869 Cin team, though there is a connection. Last edited by bmarlowe1; 11-12-2009 at 09:35 AM. |

Token from Jake Stenzel's Bar
Jake Stenzel was from Cincinnati and finished his career with the Reds. After baseball he opened a bar called the "Base Ball Exchange" across from Palace of the Fans. This token is from that bar. The pin is also from there.

Reds compact
My uncle got this for his sister in 1935 while a member of the Reds. A women's compact. Reds logo in bottom right is worn--almost no color left. Not sure how well it will present here but an odd and interesting piece

Very nice. Looks like it's sitting atop Emmett Nelson's 1936 Reds jacket.
