Two things I love about vintage pennants are...

* Oddball Mascots
* Felt colors that have no relation to the team colors

They're so different from the generic and sterilized images you see today. Just a ton more artistry and charm back then.

Below are some examples of seldom-seen team logos and mascots...

1. New York Giants - Does this Goof represent Baseball or Football?
2. Brooklyn Dodgers - I love how they "crowned" the Clown when they finally won it.
3. 1960 Pirates - This unsavory fellow made a very brief appearance on Pirates Pennants
4. Boston Braves - A one-time appearance for this guy (very rare one!)
5. Cincinnati Reds - They used a "Native American" for maybe a year or two... not sure why... Red Skin?
6. NY Yankees - Looks like they used The Mick's image for this one. But I doubt the Commerce Comet was ever compensated.

Just wanted to give this thread a kick in the pants... let's see some more oddball stuff!
