Looks like Sharpie, but they did a great job! 👍

Well, you can possibly "take" a year, but cannot "give" one, as the Braves played in Milwaukee the year prior (1965). I would go with 1966 as well... possibly bleeding into '67 if there was some leftover inventory.

As for the Patriots and White Twins pennants posted above.... first time I have seen either example... both spectacular. Especially the Patriots, with that super detailed artwork. One of Keezer's best ever!

Love the White Twins pennant. It's pretty amazing how many new pennants come up...there's so much variety. Gotta love it.

A friend of mine who collects twins stuff asked me if I knew who got these on eBay. I said I’d ask around. If you did and/or are interested in trading or selling please shoot me a message.

Thanks!

Wow, very cool. The Individual Portrait Pennant is by ASCO.

The '65 AL champs pennant is by WGN, and I've never seen it before.
Interesting thing: WGN made a few AL and NL champ pennants for certain pennant winning teams throughout the 1960s ... but they never made (to my knowledge) a companion pennant for the '65 Dodgers, who of course played these Twins as the NL champs that same year.

I don't believe WGN made an NL champs pennant for the '62 Giants or the '63 Dodgers either.

Thanks to Fball guy for snagging this for me. It's been on my wantlist for some time, with Oooribay's being the only other I had ever seen. It's full size. Something about the picture, now that I look at it, makes it look smaller.

But didn't the Braves try to get there in 1965, but were blocked by the city of Milwaukee? Thinking if they were originlly targeting 1965, they might've wanted to have some swag ready.

Must be the fat tassels...and/or maybe a slightly wider spine?

Thanks for the info gentlemen. It's actually in a Northern Michigan bar on an undisclosed lake. I shall be back this weekend to attempt to buy the thing. I'll at least hopefully get them to put it somewhere safe and get it in some plastic.

This and two other pennants are in Mike's on the Water in St. Clair Shores MI. I tried to buy them but to no avail.

Hmmm... can't rule it out, I guess!

Thank you Greg for helping me acquire this Milwaukee Braves pennant to complete my set of ca. 1959 Keezer minis....
