Nice.... Are those 3/4 or full size? Definitely rarer than the typical Trench Stadium versions you typically see.

I’m not sure, they’re approx 27” long

Random, obscure, meaningless observation made to keep this thread from sinking …. Here’s a 1969 Trench Pilots pennant, we’ve all seen it before, but this has a MLB trademark like nothing I’ve seen on any other pennants …

Anyone else have any oddities to share?

Also curious to know if any cool pennants were spotted at the National … anyone?

Not from the National, but Kyle and I had the opportunity to tour Gary Cypres' Sports Museum here in LA and saw some amazing artifacts. We only had a couple of hours and spent most of out time in the Dodgers sections which included virtually ever vintage early Dodger pennant and banner you could imagine, but then knowing Kyle and I liked pennants, Gary pulled this one out of a stack of frames he had in a storage room.

Been there, and needed a full roll of paper towels to control my drooling. Could you believe the "sea" of Dodgers' game used Uniforms , early equipment, and the gigantic vintage Ad Signs?


That Campanella All Stars Pennant is a Holy Grail. However, I guess it somehow didn't make the cut for being displayed. Pretty amazing.

I’m not sure I would want to see a Dodgers museum and I’m not sure Mr. Cypres would let me in…..but is this place open to the public?
