Hey, pennant guys

[thetahat]

I got this weird one a couple weeks ago, I know you SFG guys have it. What happened to the dude’s legs?

1966 All Star Game. Busch Memorial Stadium. 103 Degrees. He was melting. You can see it in his face.

That is a tough one, Greg. Oooribay has an orange one that is on my want list.

Here is a Cubs version (not mine). I've also seen Pirates. Very strange series. For the Giants, it seems to be the last use of the left-handed batter used by Trench for so long.

Noticed something. These weird “everything is Vet Stadium” pennants use the same graphics in the body of the pennant as the 1969 ASCO pennants. Here’s my Mets pennant with the ASCO version below it. Also the Cubs which matches the one you posted. Same with SAN FRANCISCO if you compare to your orange cloth ‘69 Giants. The cookie cutter stadium first appeared … when? Busch? These are all cloth, with cloth spine, possibly 1967-68, who knows. They don’t seem like ASCO quality.

Good pickup, Eagle Eye. Although my moth eaten Busch pennant and the ASCO are not quite identical.

Interesting … yours is felt, too. Yeah it’s not exact as if they used the same screen, can even see differences in the Mets pennants. But it’s the same general design.

Read description, and zoom in on the spine.

I never noticed the leg issue. I like that pennant. Yours looks to be in amazing condition.
