I remember that Wabash version.... Wabash was a Chicago-based pennant maker doing business in the early turn of the century. Obviously, someone copied the other maker's work. The Wabash pennant, you'll note, was sewed letter--not screen printed.
These two pennants illustrate an interesting point concerning ca. 1910 base ball pennants: not all makers had access to the screen printing method!
I just posted some new content on Repco over on Pennant Factory, for those interested in learning more about them and their work....

I knew you’d know! 
edit: If you make a repro of the Repco Giants, put me down for one!
