Great score Rob...

So impossible to beat everyone else to the punch these days. Requires lots of persistence and lotsa luck. I do have one of these Pee Wees with a similarly blunted tip. Have never seen another.

The maker of these pennants did a number of Brooklyn Pennants, a couple of Braves and a NY Giants that I'm aware of. I think some of them say "My Fan" in small font, and most/all seem to be 3/4 size. Whoever the "mystery maker" is, I like their artwork a lot.

Everyone probably already saw this but just in case. Now available for 20% off (with coupon) if interested. Reputable dealer too.

I'm reasonably certain this mystery maker was AMCO, a local Brooklyn-based pennant maker that specialized in Dodger pennants in the late 1940s, early 50s.

More to come on AMCO in '23 on Pennant Fever, when time permits.

There’s another Dodgers pennant that, I think, has the same tiny batter graphic as the one inside the ‘D’. I think it’s a rare bum pennant, also not full-size but 2/3 or 3/4. Someone posted it here, maybe Mark? I know it looks familiar.

EDIT: Yep, Mark, back on page 5 … and yes it includes “my fan”
