Does anyone know what the little "WC" initials stand for on the orange version?
WinCraft? Artist's initials? WC Fields? If this has already been discussed... Nevermind! |

I believe it was super sleuth Kyle who tracked it down to West Coast Novelty (or maybe WC Concessionaires?). I think they may still be in business. I can’t remember if he posted his findings here or in his blog.

West Coast Novelty ran concessions at several venues in the San Francisco Bay area. You'll find their mark on Trench-made pennants produced for the San Francisco Giants and nearby University of California made throughout the early 1960s. They're still in business, too! Today, they're involved in the related field of sports licensing. See: https://www.thewcngroup.com/

I don’t have that issue but I can’t Help Andrew out with any info. I’m hoping someone else will be able to help. The pennants are 1” x 3.5.”

I don't know what they are, but I think they look cool, even if they are small.

Probably aren’t too many of these pennants still around.

Especially with the cancel culture rendering that word obsolete. That pennant would be banned today. Speaking of banning, they just cancelled two of my favorite all-time cartoons... Speedy Gonzales and Pepe le pew.
