Wow, what a beauty! That series are the best-looking pennants ever made, IMO.

Stumbled Upon Two 1930's Original Six Hockey Pennants
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am always amazed by the stunning pennnants that I come across on this board and the most knowledgeable contributors who provide such valued opinions. I spoke to Mark about these two 1930's pennants and he graciously provided his opinion on them. He mentioned that I should share the photos with the board members, so here they are.

In the limited research that I was able to do, they seem to both be unique and rare pennants from the Montreal Canadiens and Toronro Maple Leafs. Believe it or not, living here in Montreal, I was not going to purchase the Maple Leafs pennant because of the bad blood between the Canadiens and the Leaf hockey teams, but there was too much history and beauty in that pennant that I also decided that they belonged together...boy that was hard to say..LOL

Dimensions of the pennants are as follow:
Canadiens 16 1/2 x 7 1/2
Leafs 17 x 7 1/2

Valued opinions are very much appreciated.

Thank you Mark.

Wow those are really cool! I’ve never seen those before. Pretty cool that with just those two, you have 33% of the then-NHL.

Good call buying the Leafs pennant. It’s not as if your mom bought you a Leafs sweater from the Eaton’s catalogue … :)

And, Mike….how bad were those ASG unis last night? I’m sure you (and the rest of us) would have liked to see Skenes in his Pirates black and yellow. AL’s were even worse. :mad:

Thank you for your kind words!

I got to say, i felt very uncomfortable and disloyal opening up that package in my home and pulling out a Maple Leafs item...went straight to the corner in shame...LoL

...but couldn't turn my back on this one of a kind piece.

Sometimes the tough decisions are the best. That's definitely the case here!

We don't get to see many Hockey pennants here, and these two have got to be the earliest ones posted. Awesome pickups!

Fully agree... Horrible decision to go away from having the players wear their own teams' uniforms. Who the hell made that ill-advised decision? And are those ugly softball-style uniforms really the best they could come up with? If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

As a kid, the magic was seeing all the different uniforms on the field at once. And what a thrill to count how many of "your" team's uniforms were out there. There was no shortage of Reds' Uniforms gracing the field during the 1970s!

Hopefully someone in MLB will have the good sense to switch it back.
