I’ve been collecting pennant strings and this here is a recent acquisition. Clearly from 1968 as it includes Oakland but neither expansion team. The pennants are a little bigger than the typical 9” ones on strings, these are almost 12”.

What’s interesting here is that this seems to have been an ASCO production. The “string” is the same wide cloth that they used for their spines and the stitching matches their “style”. Pennants are cloth.

But the pennants themselves are, with two exceptions, all Trench designs. This notably includes the Red Sox and Yankees stadium graphics. Only the Tigers and A’s appear to be copies of ASCO pennants. (The A’s full-size is super rare, I think it’s been posted here before.)

ASCO also used Trench’s swinging Uncle Sam on the 1969 trademarked “Old Timers” pennant.

That is interesting. I agree: looks to be by ASCO; and they simply copied some Trench graphics for certain teams, which they (and others) were prone to do back then.

I saw this, unbelievably, hanging in a restaurant the other day. Just hanging over a booth. I'd love to go back and try to buy it. The waitress said someone just gave it to the owner. Does anyone know what it might be worth? Pretty sure it's from 1935, but I've never seen one like it anywhere. Thanks for any help!

Jeez.... Tell the owner to get that thing protected, and moved away from that dusty/filthy air vent.

I've only seen that pennant one other time in many many years of collecting these things!

Thanks for the info gentlemen. It's actually in a Northern Michigan bar on an undisclosed lake. I shall be back this weekend to attempt to buy the thing. I'll at least hopefully get them to put it somewhere safe and get it in some plastic.

Good luck obtaining the pennant!

I just acquired a collection of autographed Negro League items, and this pennant was included. I don't know a thing about pennants, but saw a similar one on ebay. Hoping one you experts could provide a little information on the pennant, era, etc. Thanks in advance.

This and two other pennants are in Mike's on the Water in St. Clair Shores MI. I tried to buy them but to no avail.

If it was a similarly desirable Giants pennant, you’d already be IN Detroit … 😄

Yes, 1935, and this could anywhere between $1000-$1800 in my opinion in auction. Mark, what do you think?

That's a pretty wide range. I would think it falls in there, but significantly closer to the top of that range. Rarity, condition, great design and a championship year... this one has it all. Perhaps $1,500 - $1,800. Higher, if sold at auction and multiple people are gunning for it.

Apologies to anyone here who may have already made a lowball offer to the owner!
