The Sox pennant may have a slightly flat tip but I am confident that many were made that way (unintentionally perhaps) in production. I have similar pennants from this time period and same style that are otherwise mint and even with the blunt tip, full length. Pennants of this type often had a little notch on one edge and you'd even sometimes see a clean break in the strip at the wide end, like one reel ran out and another one started and they just machine-sewed 'em both together. I have a Phillies Blue Jay pennant that has this feature, will try to find and post.
