Are you certain?

Any chance it's a nod to Christy Mathewson, the pitcher? Looks to be from the 1910s, when he was among the NL's best pitchers.

Can we get a close-up of the artwork?

Ah, I’m sorry that was me trying to be funny. It’s Christy. I don’t even know if there is a town called Mathewson. I will post the graphic shortly, it’s definitely him …. Just interesting how it looks so much like a team pennant.

It’s him.
