The Brooklyn (Ebbets Field) version is pictured below. There was also a cool NY Giants Polo Grounds version with the Willard Mullin Giant (which I may try to track down later...)

It is interesting that the Dodgers carried the "Brooklyn Bum" theme to Los Angeles after the big move west. It lasted only a year (maybe two) so you see very few LA Dodgers Pennants featuring the Mullin Bum. The Giants did the same thing with the Mullin Giant. But rather than depict him in Seals Stadium/Candlestick Park, they showed him stepping on the Golden Gate Bridge. That pennant is far more common.

As for the current value of those pennants mentioned, I'd classify as follows....

LA Coliseum version with Bum: $100 - $125.
Brooklyn Ebbets Field version with Bum: $200 - $250
Giants Polo Grounds version with Mullin Giant: $175 - $225
Giants SF version with Mullin Giant on GG Bridge: $50 - $75

Hope this helps,
Mark
