Cool pennants Dan...
Although generic in nature, that is a rare Dodgers pennant. Have seen many that are similar in style, but not exactly like it. Nice grouping with no two having a thing in common! |

The trouble with pennants like that is it could well have been issued for Nebraska or Oklahoma or Cornell football.

Yep, it’s a Husker pennant. I collect old Husker stuff too.

Probably circa 1960. Not sure who made it. Found right here in Lincoln though so almost surely a Husker pennant.

I have the photo, but not the cover with teams names that goes over the photo and attaches to the pennant itself.

Not authentic of course - the MLB stamp dates it around 1980 and it is thin paper felt - but I guess close enough that a non-collector seller wouldn’t know. Although I believe this is pictured in the pennant guide. … I only know of four vintage Pilots: two red Trench, one white ASCO, one red Ad Flag.

Hi Marc, welcome … nice batch. I think Cardinals, Pirates, Phillies are each in the $40-75 range. (Thinking in terms of eBay auctions.) The Braves with player names, Cubs, and Reds (my favorite) would be higher maybe even close to $150-200 each at the right time.

I agree with Greg's estimates... spot on. The Reds is a rare version, and the Cubs is semi-rare. The Braves is pretty common, but is a championship pennant with players' names.
The other three are nice pennants, but are readily available. Great pickups! |

Thank you! I thought the braves one was odd, being that they did not win the World Series that year. Appreciate you guys taking the time to look at them.

The Braves pennant is a ‘phantom’ pennant because they didn’t win the World Series that year, but it isn’t as rare as one would think. It’s still cool as hell! |

Two recent pickups, neither broke the bank. 1960 ASG pennant from the unknown NY area company and WGN Athletics. I had only seen the latter before in a pic online, slight variation from the one I already had. This went with a batch of non sports pennants and was auctioned earlier (I underbid) but winner didn’t pay and they were re-auctioned.

That's Athletics pennant looks really sharp. Is this the other variant that you're referring to? I love that they have graphics in the middle and the end of the pennant.

Yes! That’s actually mine, displayed on my pool table. These WGNs are so cool. So now we know that they made pennants with tassels in the 40s, these are early 50s. Still looking for the Cardinals, once I get it I can die in peace.

I don’t own this Browns pennant but it is another rare WGN variation.

So which do you think is more likely: a Cardinals version was never made, or, it is so rare it almost never surfaces?

These are all pretty rare, the Cubs and White Sox being most common by comparison - still rare - although (as you know) they have the most variations (likely due to location) including multi color. Red Sox and Senators both have two versions. Did you (Mike) get that ‘45 Cubs pennant? It was stunning… Last edited by thetahat; 10-20-2021 at 02:44 PM. |

Anyone see that Christy Mathewson pennant up for auction on Heritage. The pictures are up and the auction starts next week
Very nice looking. Hopefully someone from this forum wins it for their collection.

Wow, great find Jason. Thanks for sharing.
I was familiar with this particular maker (W.C. Kern Co.); but, never knew them to have made anything but souvenir and collegiate pennants. I guess they made professional baseball pennants! Here's some of their labels in use around the turn of the past century. I'm curious if any of the Cubs pennants featured in the ad bore any of these....

All of these companies regularly issued catalogues back in those days. Typically, you had to write to the company and request one; then they'd mail you one ... and another the next year, and so on and so forth.... Most were printed in black and white; but some featured color imagery. Most were a dozen or so pages in length; but, some, especially the bigger flag makers and/or sporting goods companies, would issue sales books totaling a few hundred pages. The prices were always wholesale, with the unit price diminishing on every additional dozen pennants ordered. Unfortunately, I don't own a W.C. Kern catalogue; nor have I ever seen one. But perhaps one day.... In addition to the below 1903 ad, here's two more from W.C. Kern from 1905, and 1909. Note that none mention anything about professional baseball pennants.

Here’s something you don’t see everyday; two sets of Trench mini pennants in original packaging, one AFC and one NFC. Measures about 20”x12”. I couldn’t resist.

Chris, fairly tough. I guess you see a few of these each year. I personally like the 1961 picture pennants, this was before they used the ribbon insert and displayed the year under the pic. Looks clean and should display nicely.
