Yes… Frank Chance, Nap LaJoie, Walter Johnson, Red Dooin, Johnny Evers, Clark Griffith and Managers Connie Mack and John McGraw, to name a few off the top of my head. I know there are more but am in the midst of a brain fart.

I’ve never even heard of Red Dooin. :p

Bump for any information.

Ah yes of course. The bakery pennants come to mind. I guess I was thinking a player-only pennant with no (or lesser) mention of team. But that’s not exactly a clear cut category. If you’re talking about that Foxey Griff pennant …. Wow … I remember seeing that on eBay in my early collecting days, late 90s, and didn’t make the connection to Clark Griffith. It sold for like a grand and then I saw a dealer with it at an antique show in Atlantic City. I wonder if you have the exact pennant ….

Dooin’s Daisies! … as the Phillies were known when Red was manager (1910-14). This pennant can run north of $10K in auction …

Was that done for a tour of Japan? The font, obviously, suggests that.

Possibly. I’ve read that the 1913-14 World Tour stopped in Japan, but Christy did not make any overseas trips.

Made a holder for it … it’s not without blemishes but it works for limited display room. 40 gauge clear vinyl from an online marine store, very thick but soft. One day I’ll try the poster frame approach suggested by Baseball Rob.

Domer alerted me to this pennant (on etsy). Since my "room" is more of a flea market than a museum, I figured I would stuff the monogram under some other stuff and let the San Francisco show. The seller was Keith Javic...Domer tells me he's mrkrab around here. For $60, I figured I couldn't go wrong. Keith represented this as 1910's. What do you guys think? Was stitching this good in the 1910s? This thing is massive...47" x 17." Keith also guessed the monogram was Polytechnic College, but I see a P I C, not P T C. Besides, there's never been a Polytechnic College in SF. Any other guesses who this pennant might represent?
