As the Birds migrated from St. Louis to Baltimore and quickly established themselves as a big league power, the terms “Orioles” and “pennants” became synonymous. The same applies in this lot of (10) vintage felt banners! With crack-free appliqué and original spines and/or tassels, the items include several whose descriptions list as they appear in Mike Egner’s 2013 Vintage Pennant Price Guide II. Keys include: 1950s: Bird and stadium design (Rare); 1966: World Series design (Rare); 1969: “World Series Champs” design (Very Rare). More on our website.
Additional pennants include:
1966: “American League Champs” scroll-style roster design (Rare)
1966: “World Champions” scroll-style roster design with black spine/tassels (not listed in Egner’s guide)
1970: “World Champions” design (not listed in Egner’s guide; presents GD with wear/holes from lengthy display)
1971: “American League Champions” and “World Series Champions” design with “1971” over original “1969” indicator (Common)
