Hey, pennant guys

Very cool looking.

I have not seen that particular example, but I believe there is another example from a year close to that. That is probably one of the best and cleanest examples from that era to surface. Absolutely beautiful color and style. This is the one you've probably been waiting on Mark.

I just posted this in another thread. The New York Giants beanie was made by the pennant maker Keezer. "The Keezer Mfg. Co. Inc. Flags-Insignia-Felt Plaistow N.H. Made in U.S.A." Who knew?

Can someone make context of this?
I understand the recent Boston/Milwaukee Braves 2 sided pennant that just sold on ebay but this makes no sense whatsoever.

I have seen this Black Hawks pennant show up before as the back side for another pennant . I do not recall the other side but it definitely wasn't an Orange Bowl pennant. Its possible the maker just used unsold pennant stock to print a new design to process a new request. The NFL and baseball season would have been over in January when the Orange Bowl was being played and the manufacturer could have been printing NHL pennants that time of year. A search of that year shows the Black Hawks finished dead last that year and maybe attendance was poor as a result.We'll probably never know . Maybe someone else can chime in about these oddities.

That would be my guess too. Leftovers, maybe returns or a batch some vendor never paid for. May as well use them up making other pennants, and maybe a Chicago vendor got a "deal" on Blackhawks pennants with other stuff on them.

I never believed the story about one of the car makers using metal that was originally Coca Cola signs until I saw one.
