My computer says "the file is too large to open".

I can help to contribute with dates and scarcity. I did the same for Egner's Pennant Guide, and have stayed on top of this for over 3 decades. Some pennants have proven to be more scarce since that Guide was published, and some are more prevalent.

I cannot put as many hours into it as the first time but still happy to help out, as this is my passion. Just reach out if you need some help.

If you are pulling images off of this thread, I have tons more pennants that I've never posted here (many of which are not in Egner's book). I can possibly fill some holes once we see which images are missing. Best of luck with this ambitious project!

I've saved it as a PDF here to make it easier to open.

The pdf won't allow you to sort and filter by team etc. But at least you'll be able to open it. :D

Thanks.

Gary,

I love this idea and think documenting it the way you suggest makes a lot of sense. I’ve tossed around a similar idea in the past, but I don’t have enough time to take this head-on. But I’m happy to help!

I think other fields we could consider is something like decade/date range, as a level of detail higher than a specific year as not all pennant years are known. This could auto populate as a simple calc if a year is input, and default to NULL if a specific year isn’t entered (overridden as required). Also, perhaps league and or sport if we bring in other sports. I think having football (rob has this really well documented) and even basketball + hockey would be fun...but I may have just doubled the length of the data set [emoji23]

At any rate, I think this is great. Documenting this electronically with the previously mentioned attributes will add tremendous value to the community to easily group by, sort, filter, etc.

Count me in!

I find it interesting that the same company (WGN) made three different distinct styles for the 1951 ASG. Not sure if Baskin Robbins had yet been in business, but were there even three different flavors of ice cream back then?

I notice a few football pennants snuck into the document. New York Bulldogs and Yankees. No complaints from me, but maybe we want to keep football and baseball separate? :)

I'm planning to keep this to just baseball for now. I don't think I have the time for other sports just now. Honestly, I just didn't know about those 2 so left them in for the moment until I could look up the background.
