Knowledge needed:Paul Derringer pins/pennants
 

Hi all- I'm putting out the bat signal for a friend who has 2 items outside
my knowledge base (I know, it's small base:) Both are 1930s items:

1) I know there are Type 1 BF3 (1936) pennants with Paul Derringer, in red
and white. He has a similar item but for the colors, which are black and
yellow. Pennant is 4 inches long and about 2 1/2 inches wide at top.
Can anyone positively ID this black and yellow version?

2) Same friend has a 1933-39 issue pin featuring Paul Derringer again. It's
a black and white drawn (not photo) image of him, identifying him by
full name under the image.

If anyone wants to solve a mystery, I'd appreciate a PM. I can provide
clear images of both in an email, but not here due to my tech ineptitude.

Thank you, Trent King

This is a good question for PerezFan, or Bumpus Jones. PM them with pics if you can.

Also, on Facebook, there is a 1939/40 Cincinnati Reds group moderated by Bumpus Jones. They are extremely knowledgeable.

Can you post pics here?

Hi Tim (Todeen)- I will message those 2 members, thank you. No, no clue
how to post images here, just via email or text. Thanks again, Trent

Trent the BF3’s can come in a multitude of colors so likely just a color variation on the small pennant.

The pin is a little tougher but you may be referring to a 1938 Baseball Tabs of Paul Derringer. These also come in a multitude of different colors but it otherwise matches your description. What size is the item?

I don't think it is a type one BF3. Color is wrong. Please post a picture. Sorry about the size.

Hi Rhett- thank you for this, I will research it. The pin is small, maybe 1/2 inch circumference. There are 2 "wings" on either side of the pin, still intact, which likely
were there to keep the pin place. Trent King

Rhett- I checked out those 1938 tabs. You are spot on! There's no
doubt the pin is from this set. THANK YOU! Trent King

Glad to help out a fellow collector.

Attached is a photo of Trent's Paul Derringer mini pennant. Hopefully this image helps in solving the question of how to categorize it. I know very little about these, so hopefully someone can chime in to identify exactly what it is.

Thanks!

Rhett- again, thank you!! Trent King

I was delinquent in failing to mention Mark Steinberg as well. Thanks for
the tech assistance! My friend is thrilled you folks ID'ed his items. I'm
trying to get him to join net54:)
