I was in SF this past week went to a Giants game. They have an area called the "Vault" with some memorabilia to help celebrate 60 years in SF. They only had one pennant on display (a not so rare version with a pitcher that was not even worthy of a picture). But they did have these two banners. One that looked very much like Rob's. And a second pretty cool one of a batter that was supposedly hung along SF streets to help welcome the team in 1958.

Very nice, dig the card display as well

The “Welcome Giants” is either on loan from a Net54 member or he sold it to the Giants. I’m guessing on loan.

Giants banner
They said that many of the items were on loan. And the "Welcome Giants" banner was really nice.

Very nice pickups, jimm!
On a separate note, I've noticed a disturbing (and growing) trend of Ebay Sellers portraying reproduction pennants as vintage. Way too many examples to list, but here are a few examples... Seller uses the word "vintage" in his description, and has it priced at 6 times the value of a reproduction. Hopefully nobody gets sucked in... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Bro....c100011.m1850 Just another obvious Mitchell & Ness Repro, which has garnered 2 bids over $100 so far. You would hope that anyone with over $100 to spend on a piece of felt could tell the difference... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-ORIGIN...t/192630816617 Common reproduction of a Brooklyn Bums Pennant. But the seller uses the word "vintage" and has it priced at 4 times the value of a repro... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-MLB...gAAOSwojdbOVXk There are far more.... it took me about 4 minutes to find these three :( |
