New Jersey Giants!
Fballguy: I enjoyed seeing those pennants! Thanks for showing them.
Being from NJ I remember the Meadowlands stadium being built, but I forgot about the short-lived "New Jersey" Giants name. What an uproar that caused.

Also Rob, I saw your Lions pennant and thought you might like to see this one. I don't own it any longer but if I remember my research, I think this is from the one year the Lions didn't play at Briggs in the 40s, hence the little space and the set-back letter L. Thought you'd like to see.

The example pictured above is definitely/significantly altered.
Mine is pictured below... I will probably be consigning this pennant to REA for their Spring Auction (along with quite a few others). Condition is EXMT+ with no notable flaws. If anyone is interested in making an offer, please reach out to me via email or PM. I will not be listing it on the BST. So (in the event it doesn't sell here) please be sure to look for it in the next REA. Thanks! Mark

No "sex offenders" in these Ad Flag examples
 . The NY one had a crude representation of the Polo Grounds. The SF Giants kept this design for a short period, before replacing it with the Golden Gate Bridge.

Willow grove: Thanks for sharing that picture and the history behind it. Very cool. I always wonder what the thought process was behind using non-team colors for pennants. I have quite a few color variations particularly for my Rams pennants as they're my team (sadly).
Showdawg: I don't have that one but there was one up on Ebay a couple years ago. I bowed out when bidding got too high. Do you think that was a hand modification to the tip to compensate for a missing tip? The one on eBay had a pointy tip. I do see other old pennants cut like that from time to time. ooo-ribay: Love the pics. Are you referring to my white 64 World Champs pennant? Did they make reprints of it? I wondered about the whole punched in the left border. It is in very good condition so maybe it's not as old as I thought unfortunately.

And Rob, any idea why your Jersey Giants pennant says Jersey since it was back in the pre-meadowlands days? thanks. Peter

Not to beat a dead horse or bust anyone's chops, but I think that 1964 Browns pennant HAS to be a later release.
It looks like the later, stiffer, polyester-infused "felt." The hole suggests it had a cardboard "hang strip" (perhaps Wincraft?) attached to it. Are there maybe four staple holes on the border? Lack of tassels (not sure if this is indicative or anything). On baseball pennants, a league logo (MLB) denotes 1969 or later. Not sure when NFL licensing came into being. Again, not trying to disparage that pennant....just adding my two cents for sake of debate.

Yes...The 64 Browns white pennant came out in the late 90s, maybe early 2000s....I remember when they came out, some sellers were trying to pass them off as vintage....it was so obvious that they werent

Is there no such thing as an original version of this Browns pennant? Or is there and someone just decided to reprint it?
I just picked that one up last week so I still have time to return it. Thought the price was too good...but a lot of people don't know what a pennant is worth so didn't worry too much about it. How about the one that came with it? For a reprint, the white one still seems relatively uncommon. I don't remember seeing one on eBay previously and there are none now. eBay item number:351942251790 Have to do a sold item search for it to come up.
