Default Pennant Warning to board members

Mark S. (perezfan) and I believe the attached pennants to be pieced together from multiple parts of others. The piece with the Tigers Head was listed months ago and we spotted it. Now the same seller has another example. Notice the Detroit portion of each are identical. We believe the Tiger head is from a collegiate (Princeton) pennant. While we clearly havn't examined them in person...I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole.

Looks like this seller is trying to sell his Frankenpennants as vintage originals. If the first pennant were legit...it would be a $4000 piece. As it is now...$4.95.
