As I remember, the batter in the middle and ball at end is typical of some maker but I forget who...

So, apparently, this company offered several variations within this player-in-the-name series: a full length version with a player positioned in the midst of the city's name; and a shorter version--with no such player, due to the shorter length of the pennant.
I've also seen a Brooklyn version that measured 10" in length, also with no player. It was otherwise identical to the full length version of the same Brooklyn pennant from this series.
So, perhaps there were three versions? A 30", a 20", and a 10"?
