Thanks, Mark. I just sent you an e-mail.

Rob- your version sure does have a lot of tassels (or is that the blue version underneath?).

Not the blue version, but some other 3/4 NYG pennant.

Mini pennant just out of quarantine. Astros stuff without the Astrodome can be tricky to find.

Picked up a couple not too thrilling, top and bottom. Any guesses who did the HOF pennant? It can't be any older than 1973, because Clemente is on it. I always liked the "Giant with bat," so I picked up the 20 incher. Any idea what the "tassels" were for? I'm thinking maybe it was part of one of those NL "strings" but don't remember seeing a string with this design...

That HOF pennant was updated over time as new players were added to the Hall. I believe the first one came out in the 1950s or early 60s. Someone on here probably has an early one.

I think the tassels were just a style used for a time. This is from a dated 1935 pennant with the same type of tassels.

Rob,
On those HOF pennants, they generally put the newest guys near the middle of the pennant. Obviously you have it narrowed down pretty good with Clemente being on there.

I’d like to see an early one!

Here is one...Description noted 1950s. I'm sure someone here can be more specific.

What was the logic behind who was pictured on the pennant?
