I was the runner-up. I had a half-ass snipe (just below $1K) simply because I could not be positive it's actually a Pirates Pennant. It could easily (and perhaps more likely) be a Pittsburgh Univerity Pennant...

I like yours, Greg, because it says "Pirates" instead of Pittsburgh. Also, yours appears to be black and gold (not blue and gold). The Pirates never used blue as one of their colors, and were always black and gold. The University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) on the other hand, traditionally has blue and gold colors (just like the eBay pennant).

So why would they make one that says "Pirates" and another that says "Pittsburgh"? There's a similar example from this same series... One says "Cubs" and the other says "Chicago". The "Chicago" version has maroon and white felt, just like Chicago University. All of this makes me doubt whether the eBay example was truly a Pirates Pennant. So in retrospect, I'm kinda glad I was the under-bidder.
