Same here but recently started purchasing them if cheap...with an eye towards improving them. I'll post more results tonight once I decide on the next guinea pig.

Strange...My Redskins pennant looked better in the "before" photos. It was instantaneously evident that it wasn't going as planned.

70's Redskins After
 
One note...It did appear to get somewhat whiter over time...ie days. Where as the ones I had great success with turned white before my eyes.

Wow... that one sure bombed. In retrospect, the "before" version wasn't all that bad. :o

Here's my Jets pennant. I bought this off eBay a couple years back for next to nothing. I see this pennant goes for more now. I assume I got it cheap because of the bend near the tip. Is there anyway to fix that?

I bought this because it had Shea Stadium on the pennant. I don't see many Jets items with Shea mentioned. Because of the NFL Logo, I assune this is a 70s piece. Not sure of the year. Any ideas? I also wonder if its missing any pieces.

Looks like it never had tassels. Condition looks great... and the bend is not a big deal, but it can easily be ironed out if it bothers you.

Very easy process... just iron with some mild steam from the reverse side. DO NOT iron the front side. Use a medium heat setting and keep the iron moving. Do not leave the iron in one spot for more than a couple of seconds.

This crease should come out with very little effort. Again...

Do NOT iron the front side
Do NOT use high heat
DO keep the iron moving

Best of luck.... this one is easy in the scheme of things :)

I'll throw a prediction out there...

I am guessing this one turns our GREAT! (How's that for applying some pressure?)
