Looking for some info on this Tigers Pennant. Did a quick search on eBay and didn’t see it. Any idea about the time period of issue. It was listed in the auction as from the 60’s/70’s time frame. I have a handful of Tiger pennants from that time frame but am unfamiliar with this one. Thanks for any help.

Yes, it’s a rather rare variation. Pretty cool graphics, huh! I have the more common red version, but like your burgundy one much better.
I would pinpoint that one to the 1967-68 time period. One of their last, if not their final “Stadium” Pennant. Must have had a rather limited production run. Great pickup! |
Mark: thanks for the quick response. The graphics are really cool and the pennant is in really nice shape.

Anyone pick up that Mickey Mantle day pennant with the photo on eBay. Not the reprinted one, but the fabric one that ended on eBay yesterday? I bid, but not enough. Whoever got it, it’s a sweet piece. Kudos to you.

The seller is calling this a 1924 LA Angels PCL pennant. Don't know about that, but I thought I'd provide a picture of the label for Domer's archive.

I'm no PCL expert ... but I say: No chance. That's a 1910-era travel/souvenir pennant. I've seen plenty of similar pennants from that era using that same font. The fact that this same font was once used on the Angel uniforms doesn't mean much.
And, I don't think the Angels ever wore scarlet/gold uniforms. Appreciate the heads-up on the label. I've seen this company listed among early pennant makers of southern California; but, I believe this is the first label/pennant of theirs I've seen. |

Here's a 1929 advertisement for Fisch & Co I found in my files.
I would imagine they made a lot of early Univ. of Southern Cal. pennants back in the day, seeing as they were located a few blocks east of campus. |
^^^^ It looks like they offered font choices and the Los Angeles “PCL” font is right in the center of the ad (far right column).
|
Welp....the “PCL” pennant went for $262, plus tax. :cool:
