Find of the Week: NY Mets 1969 World Series pennant

This rare, original stadium souvenir was sold only at Shea Stadium during the 1969 World Series. Proclaiming "National League Champions" and "World Series," it features a scroll listing the full New York Mets team roster plus "Mr. Met" looming above Shea. The pennant is from one of the most memorable World Series in baseball history, when the Miracle Mets would take on the heavily favored Baltimore Orioles and defeat them four games to one. Among those listed on its team roster scroll are Hall of Fame greats Tom Seaver, Nolan Ryan and manager Gil Hogers.

This great-looking pennant, which measures 30" long, is bright orange with blue and white graphics. It's in very good, solid condition with just three tack holes (one on each corner). It is missing the blue trim and tassels on the wide end.
