Cards Pennant that I had never seen before:



Showboats USFL Helmet

I lived in Memphis in the mid-80s during graduate school and I was one of the 400 or so who regularly attended the Showboats home games.

Nice Cards Pennant! That is indeed a rare one. Condition looks great as well.... congrats

I looked through a boatload of pennants, but somehow missed that one. Another dealer had a matching pair of 1944 St. Louis Cardinals/Browns Pennants that were very tempting (but I passed, due to lack of wall space). First National ever, in which I failed to come home with a pennant

On a side note, I thought it was a decent National, but definitely light on quality memorabilia. To Mike's point, there were very few pieces with "wow factor". There were lots of nice post-war figural pieces- especially at Lou and John's Booth (Banks, Nodders, Kails, etc.) But virtually nothing pre-war, which was disappointing. For the time-being, everyone appears to be holding on to what they've got.
