This Browns appears to be from the same company as the Phillies above with the baseball scene, based on the block letter font and also the construction, including tassels that don’t match in color to the spine. (There are known Trenches that share that characteristic but they seem to all be early 1960s.)

[QUOTE=bocca001;2439542]That's really interesting to see the same scene/design on a pennant for a different team. Probably rules out a local maker unless the local maker was making pennants (copying Trench) for the Giants and visiting teams.

Mark or anyone else- you mention that the Reds pennant is a seldom seen variation. Is there a more common Reds that fits with the "insert ballpark" style?[/QUOTE]

My "seldom-seen" comment above actually pertained to the rare White Sox 3/4 pennant.

But that Reds 3/4 is also quite scarce. There's one that's a bit more common with a similar game scene depicted. But that one says "Crosley Field" within the graphics... matching the "Polo Grounds" and "Shibe Park" examples posted above.

The somewhat generic graphics on the Reds pennant shown above are often found on Phillies Pennants in particular.

Thanks Mark. I want to say that White Sox pennant is from the 1940s. Does that sound right?

Yes... but probably towards the end of the '40s or perhaps even early '50s.

Great pennant!

My son blew out his first baseman's glove this past weekend in a tournament. The local glove doctor is also a barber. I went to his barber shop this AM to pick up the repaired glove and the walls were covered in pennants. He said that clients bring them in and they add them to the wall. Most of it was newer stuff, but then there was this Luv Ya Blue Oliers pennant that neither Fballguy nor I had ever seen before. And, yes, I did try to buy it.... to no avail.

Surprising. I figure it would be worth more to you than him.

Trivia: do you know the former pitcher known as The Barber?

LOL. I will send you a pic of my favorite Giants pennant. I think I’ve had this for about 25 years now.

Definitely a Holy Grail for Giants collectors and pennant collectors in general. I have no realistic hope of ever getting one. BTW, Greg, how long have you had the sickness? I started collecting 30 years ago.
