You're right. It's not finished. This incomplete work illustrates how Trench (and others) screen printed their polychromatic pennants.

Here, looks like they used two colors for the underbase: red for the text; and white for the artwork. The next step would be to air brush the secondary colors on using a block-out stencil, which would be overlaid atop the stadium/underbase. This part of the process was lengthy because you had to wait for each color to dry before applying another color.

So this pennant wasn't completed. But someone sold it anyhow. Hope the buyer got a discount.... :)
If I was a Reds collector, I would want that as a rare, albeit ugly, variation.

Thanks for the fix, Mark!

Someone? Anyone?
Happy to help with such a worthy addiction. :cool:

I'm still waiting for these to be delivered. Having grown up in Dallas, I was happy to win the Cowboys pennant. It's missing a bit of felt, but it's still a tough one to find.

The blue White Sox is pretty unique and I’ve never seen that Cowboys. I’ve been a Cowboys fan ever since the Ice Bowl but have never collected their stuff.

I've always like the "galloping mule" graphic.

Seems like an odd departure from the typically colorful stadium pennants brought to you by Trench...

I flat out LOVE this pennant, lucky to have it in almost flawless condition. Also unique how the name is displayed, love the script. Fonts are similar to this Orioles pennant from same time period.

I don’t know of another white stadium pennant. The Tigers had a late 60s version but I think that’s it.

Been discussed before but to my knowledge these teams did not have a Trench-made ballpark pennant:

Phillies (why oh why???)
Both Senators
Twins
Colt 45s

(These seem to have started around 1956-57 so can rule out Browns, Phila A’s, Boston Braves)

Mets have one - it sure looks like Trench - but the graphic has a different look and it wasn’t made with tassels.

Despite its unfinished nature, I'd go after it pretty hard if one came available in condition similar to yours. They rarely do, however. If you look at the one on ebay, there's ink hand writing towards the tip (which kills it for me). Was going to plunk down a snipe, but then saw the ink when I blew up the photo.

So the hunt goes on!

Come to think of it, Trench really stayed away from white felt in general. Cloth, yes. But aside from Phillies and that Reds pennant … any others on white felt?

Maybe the "ink" is curly dog hair? If I wanted it, I'd put a new spine on it and trim that lower left corner. :eek:

Picked up a nice little batch of baseball pennants locally this week. The seller told me he got the Dodgers pennant at Ebbets. I can't find another one like this in google images. Looking for the photo that goes in the Twins pennant. I think it might be an ASCO photo.
