Philadelphia Stars pennants
There always seems to be several Philadelphia Stars pennants on eBay in the $200 to $250 range, but I've rarely seen pennants offered from any other Negro Leagues teams. Are these Philadelphia Stars pennants real? If so, was a stash found in recent years? They always seem to be in nice shape ...

I've seen reproductions of the Negro League teams but I don't see them very often.
The most common Negro League pennant I see is the New York Black Yankees. There always seems to be one of those on Ebay.

Chris,
There was a find of Negro League pennants about 30 years ago. Philadelphia was one of the teams in that group. They are all the 3/4 size and most were in ExMt to NrMt condition. They are legit. Negro League pennants other than those found in that find are EXTREMELY rare. I will try to attach a couple of photos as examples of that group. Today most of those sell in the $150 to $400 range.

I believe from the style, size, and other factors that these are 1940’s.
I should add that they did reproduce these pennants, but the originals are fairly easy to distinguish as original.

Agree with Jason that these are from the 1940s. It is quite easy to tell the originals from the ugly reproductions. The repros have glaring bright colored "flat" graphics, and the originals look just as you'd expect from something of that vintage... soft and deeper/more muted colored graphics and properly aged felt.
The Philadelphia Stars typically sells for the least, and seems to be the most common. The Grays and Elite Giants pennants tend to sell for the highest price, and are among the toughest to find. There is a nice Homestead Grays example currently in the LOTG auction. Hope this is helpful.
