Another thing I noticed ... the Chiefs AFL pennant has the chief in either white or gold (pennant color).
A red Texans pennant? Wow, never saw one.
I do know the white Packers 1961 picture pennant has the NFL trademark. It lists them as Champs though so maybe it was sold in ‘62.

Yep you're right. I never noticed that primitive little logo on it. That must've been one of the first. The game was played on Dec 31, 1961, so safe to say the pennant came out in 1962. And now I notice the only other pennants to display an NFL trademark in the same time period are Trench photo pennants. But we know Trench wasn't the only company making NFL pennants at the time. Safe to assume trademarking started in the early 60s but wasn't enforced until the mid-late 60s.
