Is it a game room (a place to have fun) or Dad's baseball museum (no ball playing allowed!).

Magnificent Tigers pennant Adam! There's one you never see...
I would not ship them framed. The glass could break, and it would cost a fortune to ship. I would remove them from the frames and ship them one of two ways....
1. Flat, within a plastic sleeve and sandwiched between rigid cardboard
2. Loosely curved around the inner perimeter of a large box with peanuts or bubble wrap in the center for support.
I would not roll them too tightly, as the painted graphics can crack if bent too severely. Hope this helps and best of luck!
