As to the one I didn’t already have, it is the only example I have ever encountered as an Eagles pennant (I’ve seen other teams). This one is the pennant in the center of the first image with the player donning a blue jersey. The navy blue one is a very rare one too (only the 2nd I’ve encountered) as is the Joe Must Go pennant. This pennant was made in an effort to get the Eagles to fire the very unpopular head coach Joe Kuharick.

Wonderful acquisitions, Keith! Be sure to let us know if any of those will become available...
As for the one you did not have... I believe Football Rob has the same exact Pennant, but as a Rams version. And his is the only one I've ever seen as well.
Makes you wonder how they were distributed and by whom. I bet the super scarce ones were sold by street vendors outside the stadiums, as opposed to the commonly seen ones being sold at souvenir stands inside the stadium. Just a hunch with absolutely no foundation.
