Stadium Series
 
If someone wanted to put together a set of the Stadium pennants by Trench, which ones would be needed as some teams had multiples and some did not?

To my knowledge, all teams had at least one except for: Phillies, Senators 1 and 2, Twins, Colt 45s. Multiple versions for many teams, I’ve seen as many as 9 or 10 different Tigers.

Spot on. I guess I could add that there is no St. Louis Browns, as that franchise possibly squeezed into the “stadium pennant era” just prior to their demise.

Also, the Dodgers had at least 6-7 that I can think of off-hand.

Yes, vintage catalogues like this one are huge. So, we now have confirmation that Keezer/American Knitwear made a pennant for all NFL and AFL football teams as of 1964'ish. They also did the same for the original six NFL teams. Moreover, this offering may not have featured a consistent maker's mark identifying their manufacturer as either Keezer or American Knitwear.

I'd like to update my post on Keezer to reflect some of these newly discovered pro football pennants. Can you guys help ID some of the others? Marc's eagle eye already spotted these winners....
This Bills is Keezer. It's stamped on the back. I initially thought it was 1940s AAFC Bills, but it seems logical now that this is an AFL Buffalo Bills pennant.

Wow, I’ve never seen the White Sox or Padres before those pictures. What a scarce set!

Maybe you talked about this recently and I’m behind in the thread, but Keezer also had baseball pennants with a similar design to the football ones discussed, correct? Marc, you have an Astros?

Yes I know of three LAD with the Coliseum and there are a bunch with different batter graphics in Dodger Stadium.

I guessed that the stadium pennants debuted around ‘56 or ‘57 which would “excuse” the three transplanted franchises. But this pennant throws a wrinkle into that theory …

Erik- in my opinion, the football Keezer pennants are similar to this Astros pennant (which also has no Keezer stamp). Same materials and layout.

I've also wondered about this very rare Giants mini pennant being Keezer. It shares some features of these others, but is not exactly the same.

Right on! I knew you'd have some answers for us from the football side of the house.

Is this Bills pennant full size? Marc's 1964 catalogue suggests that Keezer's/American Knitwear's offering was limited solely to 5" x 12" minis. (No mention of any other sizes.)

Interesting. I was thinking 1953-54 was perhaps the debut of “the stadium pennant.” So it’s cool to see the ‘51 Indians. With that said, it’s interesting that we have no Philadelphia Athletics Stadium Pennants, yet 4 different KC Athletics variants.
