Thanks guys (and Mark for the compliment). It is one of my favorite pennants that I own and I was stoked to add it to my collection. A Mickey Cochrane piece was my very first start in collecting memorabilia. I was a 12 year old kid and found a signed copy of his book, Baseball A Fan's Game on a book shelf in my Dad's study. I still have the copy. I believe my Grandmother waited in line at Hudson's bookshop at a book signing during the 1930's. She was a huge baseball fan. I did find the original wanted thread and sent a PM but its possible the person who was interested had a change of heart. No reply to my inquiries since I had a chance to take pics and post. Oh well, I'll gladly keep it. Actually,his timing was right because my office/memorabilia room is being transformed into a baby nursery at present and only my top pieces are currently on display. Sadly, the Cochrane pennant didn't make the cut mostly due to space constraints ( pennants gobble up wall space as many here can attest ). However, rest assured, it will hang proudly in my next home which is on the horizon.
