Hey, pennant guys

[sayhey24]

Here are a couple of my favorites. The small pennant is from Luke Appling Day with the pin attached to it.

Nice graphics on that Albany Pennant, Greg... really captures that era perfectly.

Here are a few favorites from the teens... just to keep this thread going.

Mark,
Those are really nice and I don't think most people have any idea how rare early over-sized pennants are. Especially in that condition. Even if you had the money to drop on a collection like that, good luck finding them in the next 10-20 years. I buy and sell a fair amount of pennants and do collect Yankees pennants for my own collection, but even as a seller I have to say that is an incredible grouping of pennants some of which you may have the lone example. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Jason... yes, it's been a "labor of love" for quite a few years now

Completely agree... Having watched these so closely over the years, I think it's safe to say that they're drying up pretty fast. I believe that most which surfaced over the past couple of decades are now safely tucked away in people's collections for a while. The new finds seem to be turning up at a slower rate than before. It still tends to go in "waves", but the waves are getting a lot smaller!

You hardly see a quality vintage pennant at auction anymore. You have better luck tripping across one on eBay than finding a solid one at auction with the usual suspects.

Greg, absolutely love the Albany pennant.

I know I've shown this one before, but it's one of my favorites.

Here are a few of mine that I consider "scarce". The key word being I...LOL.











Common Design, but I've NEVER seen another Cubs

I totally agree....Mark's collection is amazing. I have rarely had a chance to buy even ONE oversized, early Giants pennant and when I have, the money has scared me off!
