Oakland Seals 1970 Stanley Cup Playoff Pennant
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is a rare beauty I just picked up. 1970 Oakland Seals Stanley Cup Playoff pennant that's dated 1969. Played just two playoff games during the 69-70 season and lost both to the Penguins. Anyone on this board go to those games? I also have a program from one of the games in Pittsburgh.

Those old hockey pennants must be tough to come by!

You have no idea how tough they are to find. I never knew this one even existed until I saw it in a California Golden Seals documentary almost a year ago. I was lucky to find someone jay had it. Believe it or not, the seller lives in Massachusetts.

Hockey Pennants

Came across this California Seals beauty by chance when I was in San Francisco for work earlier this week. It's an amazing first year 1967-68 California Seals NHL hockey pennant. Got it from a longtime Seals collector.

I've only seen this one other time and that was in a 2005 Hunt Auctions I found when looking at past auctions: https://huntauctions.com/live/imagev...=184&lot_qual=

Second image is a 1979-80 Edmonton Oilers pennant from the first year they entered the NHL. I can match it to the 1979-80 Oilers souvenir brochure in the photo. Very tough to match vintage hockey pennants to their souvenir brochure counterparts. This style is actually pretty tough to find.

Third image has the first Washington Capitals Stanley Cup Playoff series pennant in 1983, the second is a Western Canada Hockey League Winnipeg Jets pennant right before they came to the WHA - same logo they used in their first WHA season, and the last is a very rare I believe early 1950s Boston Bruins pennant - thought it may be late 40s, but I'm leaning early 50s.

Great finds?

Did you ever notice the CAPITALS logo is all lower case? :p

Thanks! I think that's how they had their logo back then unless I'm missing something.

Checked on eBay and the logo looks similar from other 80s ones. Never mind - saw you're joking. Didn't see the smiley face on my phone! Lol.

Oakland Seals Pennant

Been on a real hot streak lately.

Was able to snag this 68-69 Oakland Seals pennant from another gentleman, who went to Seals games in the late 60s and early 70s. He bought it at the January 3, 1969 Oakland Seals game in Oakland against the St. Louis Blues. Absolutely fascinating to see how many different styles of pennants the Seals had. I guess they did what they do to do to try and make money.

I had never seen this one before in any of my searching.

Super-psyched to add an addition to my favorite set of pennants from the early 50s. The Cubs 75th anniversary pennant. These surface on eBay every 1-2 years, often not in very good condition. This one is pretty clean. Third version of the Cubs from this set, the blue one is pristine and a tiny bit bigger. But it is identical in every other way to the undated red one.

Some teams have two versions in this series. Senators (both pictured) and Red Sox (just one, still looking for the tougher swinging sock, I think Mark has it). There are also color variations.

If any of you have that Red Sox version, or the elusive Cardinals ("Cards") or Browns … and you wish to sell … just let me know if you want an arm or a leg.
