My earliest is an example of the Naps pennant that Mark pictured above.



Close behind is this one, which is dated 1916.



I share Mark's fondness for pennants because I think when viewed chronologically, they can provides glimpses of the history of a franchise.

This pennant, a three-quarter-size example from the 1930s, features (I think) Hall of Famer Earl Averill, one of the bright spots for the Indians teams of that era.



In the late 1940s to mid 1950s, the Tribe experienced many of its glory days, and many of the team's pennants from those years reflect that.









The 1960s were a rather dismal time for the Indians, and I think the same can be said about their pennants from that decade.
