No, I don't think so. WGN made polychromatic versions the following year for both LAD and SFG with a similarly undersized "1959" on them. So I think they updated each pennant, each year, for the first two years or so. Never seen a 1960-dated variant.

Here's one that hit the market before they could screen in the "59".

I have never seen a Giants version with 1959. :confused:

Alan,
This pennant is not rare, but obviously it’s one of the ones people want because of the date and the Dr J ties. Also tougher condition wise because it’s white. I see it occasionally, but it’s think your looks good. If the tip bothers you, you’ll be able to find another in time.

Some recent pickups. The Super Bowl XIX is a bootleg that is very, very tough to find. Thanks to Fballguy for finding it. Super Bowl XIX is prime 49ers fandom time for me, so I'm really happy with this one.

The yellow 49ers is part of a series that I have only seen as a tough-to-find mini-pennant (9 inches, I think). This 24-inch version showed up on ebay last week, along with 24 inch versions from other early 1960s (I think) NFL teams. I like it a lot. Am going to find a place for it on the wall.

The Astros is common in dark blue, but rare in Orange.

Cool pennants Marc! I’ve never seen any of those three before.

Thank you Greg and Jason! I really appreciate the information.

I'll bet the Niner Super Collector doesn't even have that yellow Niners pennant. In years of searching I've never seen a set of 24" NFL pennants. Super cool get.

So, you bought some others in order to get the Niners?

Happy Thanksgiving, Pennant Guys!

Elton John Pennant by Oxford Pennant

Thanks to my friends at Oxford Pennant in Buffalo, NY for sharing this wonderfully made Elton John tour pennant with me! These guys created a vintage-inspired pennant commemorating the legendary singer's final US concert, which took place at Dodger Stadium this past Sunday.

As you can see, their attention to detail was spot on, all the way down to the artwork and unique letter script used--an homage to another Buffalo pennant maker: Trench Mfg. Co., of course.

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody.

Kyle that’s awesome! Thanks for sharing. Good thing they didn’t try to copy an Ad Flag pennant!
