Great post! These images always fascinate me as well.
I got my version of this pennant 3 years ago, and have not seen another one since. I bet they had a very limited production and were sold for only a short time. This picture had to be taken during that brief window... I wonder how many of the bunch pictured have actually survived?

Awesome, really nice pennant. That team foiled the great Boston subway series. My Dad still talks about how that is one of his most painful sports memory. He was 12 at the time.

At the risk of derailing my own thread (although given how many others I've derailed, I suppose it's only fitting), the following photo is one of my all-time favorites, mainly because I'm a dog lover. It pictures rookie Gene Bearden, winning pitcher for the Indians in the playoff after Lou Boudreau named him the surprise starter, getting ready to leave Cleveland for Boston the night before the playoff game. In addition to the dog, I also just love the fact that not only is Bearden smoking a cigar, so is the "security" guard. And if you didn't know that Bearden was a lefty (and a knuckleballer to boot), I'd say his style of dress pretty much gives it away.

Awesome pennant and picture, very cool. Probably the last time Cleveland had anything to celebrate, other than the Rock n Roll hall of fame.

GREAT photo and gorgeous pennant you have Rob!
I'm sure a couple-3 of those pennants have survived, but I'm wondering about those balloons?
