Hey, pennant guys

Two great pickups... cannot believe another 1962 Giants stamped version surfaced again so soon. Well done Marc!!!

I still find it amazing that so many old pennants are in such good condition. If I was the original owner they would look like Swiss cheese by now. I still have my first few pennants my father bought for me, Got the Mets and Reds attending Game 2 of the 1976 NLCS. (I was six.) Both were in awful condition by the time I got to high school!

Another buddy got the first one. He wasn’t too pleased when the better version Marc got popped up a week later.

That's the fluky nature of this hobby.... you don't see one for 3-4 years, and then two turn up within a week of each other. Seems to happen all the time (to the delight of many an underbidder).

Anyone bid or win any of the pennants that Mile High just had up in their spring auction?

Not me. Sone good ones for sure!

Top pennant has a Worton tag. Next two are clearly from the same maker, circa 1948-48. Followed by a known 1949 Trench. Extremely strong evidence in my opinion that “moonlight better“ is not Trench.

The maker of the top three also have a Joe DiMaggio Pennant and I think Don Newcombe? Mark?

That is 100% correct. Unmistakably identical stylized font!

Just saw that a lot with this (along with Yankees and Dodgers pennants) sold for only $162. Wish I would have seen it.

Wow … wow … WOW. Marc I didn’t even see that. The Yankees and the Dodgers alone were worth the price. That Giants looks like cloth, too … amazing

Just happened to me...Was very excited to land this Yankees pennant. Can't recall if I'd ever seen one come up for sale previously. Then, the same day it arrives in the mail, the one below it pops up ebay...which off course I liked even better. The colors seemed to pop more. Figured I'd sell the first one. Didn't realize until the second one arrived today that it has white graphics, while the first one has gray. Now I have to keep both.

Perfect example, Rob... what are the odds? If you change your mind and want to part with the grey one, be sure to keep me in mind!

Different color tassels, too. So, yeah, you HAVE TO keep both!
