Interpretative Labels
Label
Pennants are commemorative flags that typically show support for a particular sports team. Over the 20th century, other entities adopted the pennant as a form of souvenir or local pride. The pennants in this case are all Vermont-related and represent specific events, locations, and tourist attractions.
