Completely disagree on this one. Zoo pennants typically said "Cincinnati Zoo", "Bronx Zoo" or "Lincoln Park Zoo". And they were almost all 3/4 size, which was more manageable for a child or tourist to shlep around.
Don't have time to post a ton more, but here are other early Baseball examples of just the City and Mascot...

I agree and I don't think it is from a zoo. I don't understand why you are posting a plethora of early pennants other than to show size.

It's not to show size... The first batch was to show that burgundy was the Cubs primary color for early pennants. Secondly was to show they typically used a full-grown bear Mascot (rather than a Cub) in those early days. The second batch was to demonstrate pennant examples with only a mascot and a City name. Some of the early teens pennants did not have the TEAM name. Just the City (typically positioned to the right of the pictured mascot). Sorry, I'm not able to post multiple pictures to a single post. Not sure why I lost this functionality, and apologize for the large number of posts. Mercifully, I'm done now!

I get what you're saying and eluding to. I know the Cubs are almost always maroon as you showed. I also know the city name, but almost all of those are in the early stylized font and not the block letters like CHICAGO. I just disagree and that is ok. I have seen every pennant you posted in the past, some multiple times. I am very familiar with vintage pennants and their makeup and size. I know you are very knowledgable in vintage pennants as well. I stand by my opinion and you guys can stand by yours. No big deal.
