Show your rare clemente items

Won this 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates Baseball Tag-Ons auction on ebay a couple of weeks ago. Never heard of them and I don't know if it's rare, but if it includes Clemente I like it!

What on earth is that pennant? Is the card the same size as the regular 3D card? How were these issued? Are they actually rarer than the 3D cards?

I think you can put any card in the pennant?

Oh.

As I don't own the item, it is hard for me to offer clear information, but it is my understanding that it was issued this way - interesting to note that the opening has rounded corners - could be a coincidence. I have also never seen another penant that is designed to hold any card - anyone else able to provide a scan or photo of a similar one with no card or a different card?

The recent pennant price guide does not show this particular pennant; thought it might be in there but they just have the one with team photos. Would like to learn more about this item and the card being affixed.

Anyone know of a small museum in PGh with just clemente stuff? Apparently a guy started one here and you have to request a tour, and there's a bunch of rare original memorablia...I might try to research it and check it out since I live here and could set up a visit
