Cloth > Felt in my opinion
Love the look of a smooth, unfaded 1950s cloth pennant. Also harder to find without paint cracking. Now the question is … when were the first cloth pennants made? The 1954 WS pennant made by the mystery NYC area company seems to be the oldest dated cloth pennant. I also have a 3/4 Browns Keezer in cloth … Last edited by thetahat; 02-04-2022 at 05:25 AM. |

Here are two recent pickups. I'm generally mixed on autographed pennants, but like Vida Blue on the Giants. He was one of their best players when I first became a fan. The Bees pennant is from 1984, which I can tell because it is signed by a future Japanese HOFer (Kim Kudoh). I've posted about these Bees teams elsewhere, I think. In a nutshell, they were horrible, but they had a bunch of players who went on to play for the Seibu Lions, and they became a powerhouse in Japan. Kind of cool.

I have a few versions of the Giants pennant. This happens to be the first with a white spine... but I really liked the Vida Blue addition (and thanks to Erik for making this one available to me).
As Rob and Erik already know, the pennant also came with this pennant-shaped menu, which clearly identifies the Giants as the rightful 1979 World Champions. |

Really nice Giants pennant. That has to be a tough one to find. They finished 20 games under .500 and in 4th place so wishful thinking I guess.

Well, if Oooribay doesn't have it, you know it is tough to find.
This cloth Oilers just arrived. I have 2 or 3 copies of this, but they are all somewhat browned due to age. This one is blue as can be. My picture doesn't do it justice. And, related to our discussion about cloth/woven pennants... one easy way to tell us to hold them up to the light. I know Greg likes cloth pennants. Waiting for him to start on a single bar cloth run : ) |

Is it this one? This is Oooribay's, not mine. But it is on my want list.
