That border treatment is pretty ugly, IMO. But, don’t get me wrong, if the Giants had one, I’d want it! :p

I am pretty sure there are at least 4 different Koufax photo pennants. There is the one that was in the Mears auction - I have seen a couple of those through the years. There are also these two that I have shown (from Huggins and Scott) and I believe there is a black and white photo of Koufax used in a pennant as well.

Yep … bought it for $50 or so three months ago … nice profit!

I do have the three Koufax color photo pennants, but don't recall ever seeing one with a black and white photo. Must not be very many of them out there.

Jason, I recall a short while ago a bunch of the individual Dodger photo pennants surfaced on ebay, but I never got around to bidding. I think they were in decent shape too. Oh well.

Just picked this up. Cheap, cheap! No color ever added to the batter or ball. Graphic by Trench; lettering by IMPKO? I like how you can see they had to first screen the lettering in white, in order for the orange to show on black.

Nice one, and great condition!

Someone posted a cool pic on Twitter from the ‘44 WS … never saw that Cardinals pennant before!

Great pic, Greg! Kind of coincidental how the S L and C are bigger, like the S F G in the pennant I just got. “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.”

Domer and I had a back and forth discussion a few weeks ago about whether or no Keezer ever made football pennants. Specifically, the 49ers pennant below and others in the series. These mini (5 x 12) pennants are very rare, with full-sized examples being crazy rare. Kyle noted that none of these pennants had a Keezer stamp, which, based on what I have seen, is true. I noted that the materials in these pennants (they have a unique spine/tassel material... as seen on the 49ers pennant tassels) are identical to known Keezer pennants.

Then this "American Knitwear" brochure showed up on ebay, which I bought for a few dollars. Domer can tell us more, but apparently this is the same company as Keezer (from Plaistow NH). It's clear that they were selling both football and baseball pennants. Specifically, 5 x 12 pennants, which is the size of my 49ers pennant.

Interestingly, the cartoonish images on these pennants are the same images that IMPKO used on a series of decals (see the decal behind the yellow pennant). Not exactly sure about the connection.

^^^ those type of brochures are a great help in solving the myriad pennant mysteries.
