Nice, Greg. I like the miner panning the football too. So many variations in material and graphics colors.

AMAZING! The green and blue felt versions especially.

Hank, I think the Packers is mid-late 50s and the Texans is 1961 or 62. There’s a white spine and red spine version. I’m not a football pennant expert but I think there might be a red felt version of this with the AFL trademark? Not positive …

What pennant of yours is your favorite, putting value aside, strictly in terms of “eye appeal”?

Not rare but I love the color in these. The fonts are all the same, suggesting the same maker....which is who? :confused:

I could use an upgrade on the last one. Bocca has one where the water is actually blue. I've been looking for it. This one has a satin-like spine.

Some great pennants on the thread this week. Love the Texans penannts and the 49er's disply.

I've had a couple of new arrivals this week. The Giants is from the grommet series. Except for some fading to the green color, it's in great shape. It could do with a gentle clean but I'm not willing to risk it.

The Cardinals is a mini pennant but I've not seen it before except in Mike Egner's book.

Love that Titans pennant. I had a friend when I was a kid who said the he played for them. Never found much online about him. He did have tons of pics of when he was on the practice squad for the Giants in the 50's though.

Nice grommet pennant, Gary. I think that is now the third copy I've seen. Mine, yours, and there was a more yellow colored one auctioned off earlier this year.

Yes there is. But the graphics are not multi-colored on that rare red felt version.

Love the last Giants pennant. The only SFG I display!

Interesting … the only other obvious Trench of which I knew was the red Cotton Bowl version (no AFL mark). Must be incredibly rare.
