I have a run of photo pennants from 1960-1971 including 2 different from 1960 and 2 different from 1968 as well as a 1965 All Star photo pennant with Clemente. Don't recall that I've seen them from 1972 or 1973 (Is Clemente on the 1973?) Definitely a steal on that Tuscany statue!

I don't own either of those two. All of my Pirates pennants (9 different ) are from the 1971 season. He doesn't appear on the 1973 version.

With a print run of 21,000 this must be the not-particularly-limited edition Statue Dedication patch (cf. "Day 41", pg 15 post #150)

I pulled it from a box of mementos in the basement; it's unopened.
(I can't say I remember it at the time, but re-reading it now IMO the write-up comparing his life to a base-path is a bit corny).

Similar to one Howard posted. Wish it had his photo and was in better condition, but sometimes you take what you can get. Not sure why there are so few of these out there, but they are rarely seen.

1973 Funeral card...

Apparently these fans were meant to be signed. I saw this newspaper advertisement on another site. I thought I'd share it.

That fan is so cool to begin with...add the autographs and it’s just off the charts!

Yes, rats fan is one of the coolest pieces of memorabilia I’ve seen. Wish I could pick up a bat fan for a buck fifty.

Super Cool Ad Mike!!
 
Thanks for sharing. I believe I have seen 2 autographed (including Floyd's). Great sales pitch planting the seed to have them autographed, but how many actually did..........

The article reasoning for the '60 WS outcome is fun too.

I believe they both came from the gentleman who made the fans. A friend had him come to a show back in the 80s with 2 and he sold him one of them. I saw another at auction years later.
