Pennants truly are the "quintessential" Baseball Collectible. They can be traced all the way back to the Knickerbockers, and to Baseball's earliest origins. The term "Win the Pennant" showcases pennants as the ultimate prize for winning it all.
As far as collectible pennants that one can reasonably expect to own now... I would agree that the 1910s are about the earliest. I have seen a very few dating earlier, and very seldom do you see anything from the 1800s. Many of the pennants from the teens were "Oversized", and are among the most treasured variations today. The large sizes and stunning graphics make them desirable and very collectible display pieces. Here are just a few examples, to wet your whistle... Hope this helps, Mark |
