This would be one of those agree to disagree moments unless I see a photo of it at Wrigley Field. I believe this is a Bears pennant. Generally pre 1920's pennants are in that 35 inch range, but it is my opinion that this is Bears. One reason I say that is that there is only a Bear and not a Cub or bears Cubs on the pennant. I have sold three or four of these in the past and I may have sold this one to Dave Bushing. There is another similar or same version that Duke Hott had in his football collection that I sold to him. It's a great pennant either way and I may in fact be wrong. Hopefully there is some concrete proof that I am unaware of. I will check my records and photos as well to see if I have anything showing this version.
