The seller had an L.A. Chargers pennant as well and they were both ending within like 12 seconds of each other...so I was half in on both...and got neither.

I was thinking of you when it ended and hoped you had gotten it. Glad it went to a good home. Doesn't sting as much when you're happy for the guy who got it.

Thanks, Rob.

Great pickup, Marc...

I was watching that one closely as well, and am very happy for you. A really nice and unique Oilers Pennant!

Acquired a new color of the Emmet Kelly Dodgers pennant, sort of a reddish purple. This joins: violet, blue, black, red, and green. (No fading, these are distinct colors.) My question is ... are there others? I think I’ve seen orange somewhere.

Obviously pennant manufacturers made pennants in various colors as they were marketed towards children who had different favorite colors. I just wonder for example, if these Dodger pennants were made mainly in blue, and less in the other colors? Or were there a similar number of all colors in a run?

Can't say for the Dodgers, but, with SF Giants pennants, black pennant and orange spine seem to be the most common, followed by dark blue with yellow spine. Other colors (e.g., red, green, maroon) seem to be much less common.

Astros
 

Just picked up this funky 1970s(?) version of an Astros Astrodome pennant. This version, with the "thick" Houston is somewhat less common than many other versions.

Note the "VET" mark/stamp at the bottom. Figured I'd share to see what Kyle might know about it.

Vet(erans) Stadium! I know this because as a youngster in the late 70s I bought a few of these at the ballpark (or my Dad did for me). There’s a Mets Mr. Met pennant with the same stamp, I’ll see if I can find a pic.

Here ya go

This Giants pennant here is a non-faded turquoise ... actually brighter than it seems in the pic but it was taken in bad lighting
