Awesome pickup Greg...

Love the vibrant colors against the jet black background. The diminutive Boudreau headshot in this version is such a cool addition.

Thanks Mark and Chris. Both of you being Reds collectors, here’s a question … I don’t know of any Reds scroll pennants by Trench from this era. Am I correct? I only know of the white ‘61s.

I also think 1961 is the only Reds Scroll pennant Trench made. Would love to be wrong!

I know the question wasn't addressed to me but....

This one is from 61 and it's a scroll (not my pennant btw). I know it doesn't have tassels but could it be Trench? I don't think I've seen the 1961 white version you're thinking of Greg.

Those colors kind of scream WGN, don’t they?

Gary thanks for showing this … it was an open question, one I thought the Reds fans would more likely know. I guess this is a WGN, like Rob suggests, to me they look a lot like Ad Flags after the early 50s so I can’t tell for sure. Definitely not Trench.

The 1948-1959 era Trench scroll pennants, IMO, is peak pennant beauty. They started getting weird in 1960.

I think everything started getting weird in the 1960s

We were talking recently about Tigers pennants, I thought I’d post my very favorite. Not my most valuable Tigers but definitely the most aesthetically appealing IMO. In case you didn’t know, I love Trench.

This is definitely by WGN. The Day-Glo color palette, the multi-colored scroll lettering, and the bat-skewered baseball are all typical of WGN's designs offered beginning in the late 1950s and continuing on through 1970.

There's an otherwise identical variant of this pennant that's dated, "1961." There's also a newer, similar looking one by WGN commemorating "The Big Red Machine" Reds that must've been one of the last MLB pennants ever made by them at the decade's end.

Thanks for clarifying. And because a picture is worth 1,000 words...here's the dated variant of the WGN pennant and the 1972 Big Red Machine edition.

Also my bad, the one I just got is blue, picture below the black one I already had in slightly lesser condition. Identical except for the color of Lou’s cap (which may have simply faded on the top one).
