Hey, pennant guys

[bocca001]

Nice, Rob. Looks almost new.

But why so many green and yellow and white Giants pennants? I know that some of it comes down to the pennant makers not really caring all that much, but are there, say, a bunch of green and yellow Phillies pennants? Probably.

Thanks to the wonderful staff of the Brooklyn Public Library, Center for Brooklyn History, I was able to obtain digital scans of all 51 pages from a 1913 sales catalog by The Reproduction Co. currently in their holdings.

I posted more excerpts over on Pennant Fever, but here's a few pages to pique your curiosity....

And returns disappointed. Clicking Kyle’s link got me a security risk message. Going through a google search got me “page unavailable.”

My computer blocked it, also. Was there an Amherst example, by any chance? Those are very cool, are there many known to exist?

Thanks for posting this, Kyle...

The Michigan example in the Catalog matches my oversized Washington Huskies Pennant to a tee. Cool to know it's a Reproduction Co example.

That’s a beautiful Huskies pennant Mark! For football they seemed to have kept with the brown/white color scheme, but for baseball they appear to mix up a bit...here is a red highlighted baseball.

Looks like Jim Scott is the inspiration for the Dartmouth Pennant (seen in Post 9384). I used to have this same exact Pitcher image on an early teens Boston Braves Pennant, which I sold years ago.

Pretty cool to know the origin of this one, and makes you wonder how many others are based on actual Player images. Link below...

Found an image of my old Boston Braves, with Jim Scott as the subject...
