I’m finally getting around to cataloguing my pennants, thought I’d post a few rare Cardinals pennants because why not …

What's that first pennant say in the copyright?
And, I know we discussed this before, but what's with the Spanish language on these 1960s Cardinals pennants? El Birdos??

Great pennants Greg. Thanks for sharing.
I love "Super Birds eat Tiger Meat". I doubt that one would be produced today.

Thanks Gary. I know you are cataloging pennants in general, I should be able to help you with this as I finish mine.

Quote:
“Amadee” is the first name of the cartoonist who drew the graphic. Here is a button for sale on eBay which gives some more background. https://ebay.us/m/GkxVMX While this seems to credit the phrase “El Birdos” and “El Cardos” to Orlando Cepeda, my understanding is that they were coined by the Cardinals third base coach, Joe Schultz (who later managed the Pilots). The Cardinals collectors here would know more. |

Finally, some life in the pennant thread! I love the first four you posted, Greg! It’s great you (we) could find out about the artist from your ebay link.

In addition to Eating Tiger Meat, I don't think "El Birdos" would fly either (sorry, bad pun).
It would be Los Pajaros in Spanish, but if they thought "Birdos" was clever, at least say Los Birdos instead of El Birdos.

A bit of a crossover thread here, but I have these two pinbacks in my collection.

Nice Pins.... those are toughies. But again.... "El" is singular. Should've been Los Birdos and Los Cardos.
But I get it.... nobody else cares!
