As requested. You can see it is a separate piece of fabric, but it appears that is was applied prior to sale as it looks the part. I have never seen one like it, but one could pop tomorrow. That Giants one is a tough version as well. Ironic that they are playing right now. I won't tell you who I'm rooting for.

BTW, I've never seen that Steve Blass pennant either.

I like that pennant, Jason.

And Mike has a new Holy Grail.

Do you suppose it had originally read, "American League Champions"? And then they updated their unsold stock after the series ended? Definitely looks like the original manufacturer made this modification.

I guess they had to fill some space; hence the "Giant Killers" addition.

I would guess that. It is very secure so I can’t peel any of it away to peek. Honestly, I can’t remember seeing a regular Yankees version either. I assume it was originally sold in San Fran and they made very few Yankees versions compared to Giants and sold even less. Probably took unsold stock and tried to make the best situation they could with the remainder. When I bought it, the seller also had the Giants version. I want to say they had some other Giants version that was similar to the Giants version posted, but slightly different. Hard to remember.

That is a GREAT YANKEES PENNANT!

I have seen the Yankees regular version (1962 AL Champs). It was in an early Mastro & Steinbach Auction, but of course we can no longer access those archives.

Here’s a related 1962 WS pennant with the same Batter graphic.
