Presented is a rare New York Football circa 1920s football pennant. It is not certain if the pennant was for the New York Football Giants professional team or for some other entity. The Giants joined the National Football League for the 1925 season, the sixth season of the NFL. In the team's initial season, the Giants' home jerseys were white with blue sleeves, such as the jersey on the player in the displayed pennant. The Giants played their home games in the Polo Grounds, also home to the New York Giants baseball team. Tim Mara was the original team owner, and he began his ownership with an initial $500 investment. In their first season, the Giants went 9-3. With very unbalanced and almost haphazard scheduling, the league declared the Chicago Cardinals as the champions that season. The league had twenty teams in 1925, including franchises in big cities such as Chicago and New York, as well as small cities: Green Bay, Wisconsin; Frankford, Pennsylvania; Pottsville, Pennsylvania; Akron, Ohio; Dayton Ohio. The biggest star in the league was back Red Grange, who played for the Chicago Bears. The Giants won the team's first championship in 1927, with a record of 11-1-1. The Giants were coached that year by Earl Potteiger and the Giants top scorer was fullback Jack McBride, who scored six touchdowns and added two field goals and 15 extra points for 57 total points. The pennant measures approx. 34.5" long, with a height at its longer end of approx. 11". The high quality felt pennant has "New York" sewn on, and a fascinating image of a football player - depicted in the leather helmet of the time and carrying a football that is much rounder than current footballs. The pennant shows some fading, to be expected as it is approximately 100 years old. The pennant also has some creasing, some crinkling, especially the pennant's narrow end, and at least six very small holes. Overall, particularly considering the approximately one hundred year age of the pennant, the item presents well and is a fine collectible from football's early days.
