Hey, pennant guys

[Sportsguy20]

Thanks Jason for your input.

It's a surprisingly rare one, and I agree with mid to late '50s.

It is not common, so there is some mystery around it. There is a 3/4 size (typically burgundy felt) and this full size version (I've only seen the blue).

Both are equally tough, but not impossible. I remember it taking me about 2 years to track down one of these, but a few have surfaced since then.

That doesn't add much insight here, but hope this helps a bit!

Anyone able to tell me when this one was made. Considering the poor condition what would you value it at.
thanks

Hey guys,

I'm not very knowledgable with vintage pennants, and I'd love some help with this one. The letters are stitched, and the condition, aside from 2 pinholes, is great with great color.

Any help I could get with not only value, but ballpark year(s) it was made would be greatly appreciated!

Late 1950s on the Dodgers. A great Dodgers Variation, but in that condition, it's worth very little. I would say $10 - $15 at best... it's just too faded and rough to be worth much more

In NRMT Condition, that one would be $125 - $150. I have also seen that same pennant with a "1959 NL Champs" overlay.

On Notre Dame, it's a tougher call. That embroidered, generic style spanned a few decades. Based on style and that type of thin cloth tassels, I would estimate 1940s, but there's a big potential variance on this one.

It could actually range from the 1920s - 50s. Sorry I cannot be of more help on that one. Neat pennant!

Thank you for your help; my best guess was the 40's, as well.

I see you have it in a top loader which tells me it's in the range of about 30 inches. I agree that it could be anywhere from the 1910's to the 50's, but based on the size it is most likely 1930-40's and if I had to be exact I would say 40's. Earlier versions would more likely be made longer and by the 40's most schools had gone to screened graphics. Nice pennant in great shape. As for price, I would say $75-100 would be fair given it is Notre Dame. Jason

NY Giants used the same "star" motif in 1954.

I'm not sure if this is a New Orleans pennant or not. If it is it could be from the 1950s, but most likely from 1977 when the team was resurrected for one season. Any ideas? Skip
