It's a never-ending smorgasbord of inredible pennants. Should be designated as "The Great Wall of Thetahat".

But to stay "on-topic", I have the identical 1940 WS Scroll version (Reds/Tigers) in green felt with yellow graphics.
The Great Wall (LOL!) is now finished with mini pennants in little holders. That 1940 pennant is neat, as is the Tigers “Pennant Winner” version (which I also don’t have.)

Thanks … yeah the Yankees batter graphic is the sane as the one on the Cubs “Play Ball” pennant … and I think it’s on a White Sox pennant, too. Suggesting these are WGNs.

Really nice pennants, Greg. Impressive that the follow-up paint on the 1939 pennant has not faded.
Thanks. It’s an odd looking paint job. Like heavy thick lines, not blurred.

Loving the Great Wall Greg!

Ok, so that's officially "The Great Wall"

Let's see the other wall... perhaps to be aptly named "The Wall of Fame"

It seems as if after 1940 they did away with the grommets and stitched the tassels to the pennant, still without a spine. There is typically a clover design where the grommets used to be.

In the pic below only the 1939 dated pennant has grommets. Gotta be a Midwest company …

(On another note, I’m always looking for color variations of these Browns pennants … I think I’ve seen blue?)
Ugh... wish you'd hit me up about a year ago. I auctioned it for roughly half its worth. It was a deep blue felt with bright orange graphics. Would've fit in perfectly with your Browns montage. :(

Is it this one? This is mine. I’m referring to the exact design in the other pic, same style, font, etc. I think there may be a 1938 dated Browns just like the Cardinals.

Will have more pics soon …

I don't collect pennants, but was blown away by the Negro League pennants that were in the last Hunt Auction. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to win any, but was wondering how rare the Negro League pennants were. My assumption is that they are exceptionally difficult to find, but I am just basing that on general Negro League items vs American/National League items from that era.

The Monarchs and ASG pennants that were auctioned are very rare. The other team pennants also, but as I understand it, there are a lot of convincing repros of them out there. I don’t have any, so there are others here who can better elaborate.

There are repros, but the original examples still outnumber the reproductions. Easy to tell the difference. The 3/4 size Examples linked below are all originals, and are more prevalent than the Monarchs and East-West pennants that Greg referenced.
