I just know I like it!

Those dimensions are rather unusual...your pennant is 2:1, length to width...most "full size" or "3/4" pennants are closer to 3:1.

I'll make it my mission to find that 1938 ASG photo

edit: now that I've seen Mark's 1919 pennant, maybe the 3:1 ratio is more of a modern thing. Mark?

Great pennants guys. Here are a couple of mine.

Cubs double sided
1942 Yankees
1940's Cardinals (haven't seen another one this style)
1952 All-star Game

You need to find another Cubs, so you can display them side by side . That is an awesome pennant. Have you seen other double sideds?

I have seen a couple but I think Mark and Keith might have covered the rest.

I shared this Mantle Day pennant on another thread a few weeks ago as a recent pickup, so I apologize to any of you who may have seen it there.





1950's Yankees arch rival Brooklyn Bums




This one I've often wondered about...Is it a baseball pennant (White Sox)? It has a cloth AG Spalding label sewn onto the back (circa 1910's logo). Has anyone seen one like this in a ballpark photo?




Lastly, if you will allow it , a Football pennant I recently picked up in an Antiques store. There was another recent thread asking if we ever find any good deals in Antiques stores. Like most of us, I usually don't; but this time I did!

Let's give it the old college try...

Great pennants guys, I love the ChiFeds especially! Here is the one pennant I own. It is a bit rough but the only one I have ever seen.

Sorry I missed that... the 1919 Reds pennant is just standard full sized.

Scott's magnificent Vandy Pennant is a unique animal. Nothing quite like it, in terms of size or material (which is more of a cloth, than felt). Plus, it was originally attached to a stick in a unique way that really cannot be compared to anything else.

Mike:

That All Star Game Pennant is going to kill me if I look at it for too long. Great stuff as always...

Now everyone stop posting, so I can get back to work.... major distractions here!
