Appalachian Bible College

American Baptist College

ABC University of Atlanta

ABC University LA

Looks to be some ABC High Schools as well

Who knows what else there was back in 1913, these just came up in a Google search.

And knowing what we know now about this pennant I'd be safe in saying there is NO WAY this is a Negro League pennant.

This one brings all-new meaning to the term "Leap of Faith"

Very honest description of the pennan the first time around.

I have little to no experience concerning vintage pennants. That being said, to me, the quality of that pennant looks much better than something that someone could have bought as a souvenir at a Major League game in 1913, let alone a Negro League game......

I emailed the seller about provenance and he said he is as sure this is an Indianapolis ABC's pennant as REA was sure this was a Boston Red Sox pennant and not a Spartanburg, Brantford, Danville, Superior or one of the many other "Red Sox" teams that existed in 1912.

I'll give him credit though he did not hide the fact that he bought this off of ebay just recently and told me exactly what the first seller mentioned about the pennants.
