New York Yankies Pennant

This full size felt souvenir pennant features the misspelling of Yankies [sic] Yankees. The rarity of this error pennant might mean that they never made it out of the factory and into the ballpark. It is not known if there was a corrected versions of the design pictured above. There was a pennant issued around the time the Yankees went on the run of 5 consecutive Championships, 1949-1953, that features "New York" in Old English font, like the one pictured here. The pennant is not dated but features the Yankees Top Hat logo which was first used in 1947. I would roughly date this pennant to about 1949-1953. There is a corrected version of the "Yankies" error pennant pictured below that was sold in the 1940's.

The graphic illustration on the left of pennant pictured above features a runner sliding into home plate, the catcher about to catch the ball, and the umpire waiting to make the call. To the right reads "New York" in Old English font, above the misspelled "YANKIES" with a ball & bat below. The error pennant pictured below features a graphic illustration of a coach yelling from the steps of the dugout, above the words "NEW YORK" with the Misspelled "YANKIES" below. To the far right a batter that just hit a ball. The corrected Pennant has an estimated value of about $150.-$200.
