Hey, pennant guys

[pologrounds]

No doubt you have seen the same football player on circa 1910 college football pennants. These are two (2) different 1905 pillow covers by same artist. Courtesy photos: Mayseum, Daly City, California.

This one just arrived. My baseball player kid really likes these Colt 45s pennants with guns shooting baseballs.

Nice pick up...Your first pic and second pick are in vastly different realms of value.

I was looking at some of my Santa Clara football pennants tonight and was wondering about the generic runner/kicker/passer images on them. I have several pennants that include a generic player image (see below). I've seen most of these same images used for other teams, but not the first one (I admit that I haven't serched extensively).

I was curious if anyone has a pennant with this same runner image?

I'm also curious to hear what people think about which one of these pennants might be the oldest.

[ooo-ribay]

I think the one with the guy throwing the left stiff arm is the oldest.

Why? I dunno.

[bocca001]

It is the dirtiest.

I just added the middle 49ers pennant to my collection. About the only vintage piece I've been able to add lately.

I also added the more modern white Astros pennant (below). This pennant is more difficult to find than you'd think, especially in decent condition (see the yellowed version above it). Love the tequlia sunrise colors, and the Astrodome (which dominates most Astros pennants of the era) is nowhere to be seen. Because the Astros version has been so tough to find, I went ahead and picked up a clean version of the Giants pennant (I think it is the same series). I believe that these date to 1982/1983, as there are a number of similar looking Phillies world champs pennants for sale on eBay.

That's a very nice addition! Lifelong Rams fan here, so it pains me to look at it.... but what a cool pennant (and rare!)

Great stuff!

Did one of you guys buy the football lot that was in Heritage? Nice lot of very nice pennants. I bid, but for resale and figured it would go well above what I bid.
