Day 269 – 26 September 2024
Today I am showing you the 1965 Pennant featuring the Orioles Team Photo.


I would be remis if I did not mention today marks the 1 year anniversary of Brooks Robinson’s death. He died on 26 September 2024 at the age of 86. I attended his memorial ceremony at OPACY a few days later. I was sad to see there were no programs at the Memorialbut did save my bottle cap from the service at the Yard. Look at the shelf display to left. The memorial was very nice. Today I am Including some pictures from the Memorial and my top shelf in my curio cabinet dedicated to Brooksie to include the bottle cap I saved from his Memorial.

Day 270 – 27 September 2024
Today I am showing you a few Orioles Pennants from their first WS. You will see the popular blue Dodgers Vs. Orioles pennant in the middle. This is a classic. The two on either side celebrate the play offs and WS. The two on the ends feature the team photo and the WS and AL Championship. I am also showing a smaller pennant with the player names and the photo pennant without WS Champ felt scroll. I recently found this other smaller pennant without the player names.

Bomb ‘em, Birds! is my favorite even though the others are really nice.

Oh, the curio shelf is off the charts cool…
