Vintage
1950 American Nut & Chocolate Pennants. These
pennants came in a box of candy (pictured below) along with a pin for 5
cents from the American
Nut & Chocolate co. of Boston. The 4"
mini pennants are often found with candy residue still
on them. Two sets were
made. One set of 22 ballplayers that features a drawing
of the player along with a facsimile signature. The
