The spine looks a bit wonky. I'm not sure if it's just poor quality control at the manufacturer or if sone's tried to reapply it. It's a fairly scarce pennant so there's not too many photos that I can compare it against.

I'd welcome you're thoughts?

Gary,

Love the pennant, I own the green version and yours is the first one I've seen surface in several years. Unfortunately, mine has the year wrote on it by whoever previously owned it. As far as the spine goes, I would agree with everyone else and say it just poor quality and the pennant is 100% legit.

Someone posted this in a Houston Colt 45s/Astros Facebook group and I thought I'd share it here. Concession stand at a Colt 45s game. Image quality is not the best, but cool that it is in color. This guy has a ton of pennants. I think the post said it was from 1963.

If the upside down Giants pennant is a distress signal, they could use it now.

Great photo. So this was pre-Astrodome? Colt .45 Stadium, I think it was called?

Are the arrows pointing to a Colt .45s Ladies Apron?

I'm guessing the arrows were added digitally by a collector to point something out to another collector. Not sure if the guy who posted it has an unadulterated original. We were just talking about a dodgers collector who was trying to get everything listed in team catalogs. I guess a photo like this can help to serve the same purpose.

The navy blue Colts pennant is a toughie to find in good condition …

I love that all the pennants were sold on sticks. Makes it easy to wave in the stadium but we hardly ever see them that way as vintage items.

Our local AA team, the Flying Squirrels is doing a throwback night to commemorate the old team in Richmond which was known as the Virginians. Here’s a video they made and early in the video you can see a vintage Virginians pennant.
