1950s College Football Pennants Candy Insert (BF15 in Burdick)

[clamendo]

In Jefferson Burdick's Guide, it refers to small felt pennants (approximately 1 1/2 "x 2 3/4") that were inserted in Penny King Candy Company boxes in the late 1940s or early 1950s. I recently picked up a small group with the individual boxes and an associated football charm (with the college name stamped on it). I believe they are B15s and much more scarce that the BF3s. I have 11 of them.The more common BF3 are listed in the pennant price, but there is no mention of the BF15s. I have the pennant, box, charm, and some of the original candy in a glassine envelope. I think there are 40 different teams and 16 different gold footballs. The pennants do come in different colors. Here is who I have with some PICs. If anyone has an interest please send me a PM.

Pennants: NYU(green), Wisconsin, Minnesota, Cornell, Holy Cross, NYU (red), NYU (black), Darthmouth, Michigan, Baylor, Missouri
