Default Nice pennants

Walter Highbee was really Kirby Higbe. Ken Silvestri did make it up to the big club in 1939. Andy Lotshaw was likely a coach--he would have been 57 the year of your pennants.

Vic Frazier played in the Bigs too.

Default Zeenut players

There are players that have zeenut cards that never made the PCL teams. If my memory is correct, the pictures were taken during pre-season. I was attempting to identify players by their complete names, and I was unable to find them on the official team rosters.

Andy Lotshaw was the longtime trainer of the Cubs. Perhaps some of the other pennants also honor non-playing personnel.
