Hey, pennant guys

[bocca001]

Well, that moonlight batter must have been playing for the Dodgers in the 1940s. I think he got traded to the Phillies sometime in the 1950s (right Greg? I think there are Phillies versions) and then apparently finished his career with the SF Giants.

Yep here’s the Hello Donny banquet pic again, with Phillies moonlit batter, 1963-64 (Colt 45s pennant peeking out in upper right).

If you would like six original phots of that banquet, my buddy candlestickdandy has them on ebay. Search “fresno” in his store. Make him an offer. Tell him ooo-ribay sent you.

The weird thing about the pennant behind the guy at the podium, it’s a 1963 WS pennant with the ‘3’ changed to an ‘8’ …

So, where's the SF Giants pennant?? I always assumed it was the one hanging behind the speaker.

Why would a banquet hosted by SF Giants personnel include two Dodger pennants--and no Giant pennant?

Perhaps "Donny" wasn't into the black/orange?

There are 8 pennants fully pictured, a tiny bit of the Colt 45s, and I’m guessing that the Giants is next to that out of sight. Look how they are arranged. Assuming symmetry, there is one more pennant to the right of the Colts and that would be the Giants.

If anyone is interested in selling their pennant collection, Super Break Sports (whoever that is) is buying.
