I'm not sure of the exact age of these pennants, but the purple was a color associated with the Giants before orange and black. I think they first used orange and black in the mid 1930s.

I'll try to find the teal version... which suggests that the pennant color may have had as much to do with available stock as opposed to teal colors.

Mini version, slightly different

Mark- is your purple pennant full size? Or 3/4?

It is 3/4 size, just like the others. But unlike the purple pennant you recently posted, it's thick felt, as opposed to cloth.

Your purple pennant with orange tassels is the best example of that particular pennant I've seen. No fading whatsoever, and clean as a whistle. Not sure why, but that pennant is almost always found torn and tattered. Awesome find!
