Storing these things...
 
3 Attachment(s)
A few people have asked about the best way to store vintage pennants (provided you aren't going to hang them, and/or have limited space...)

I use these Bins, which can be bought at Target, Home Depot, etc. Without measuring, they are roughly 36" long X 15" wide X 8" high. So they can slip under a bed frame, if so desired. They are often sold as Wrapping Paper Containers.

If you get the right ones, you can go both directions, and fit 2 stacks of pennants. They also have a small "well" which circles the perimeter of the bottom. This can be used for adding cedar balls, which deter insects and moths (see pics below...) This is the most secure and best way that I have found to store pennants. Hope it's helpful!

A picture is worth a 1000 words. Thanks, Mark!

Awesome Mark! Cedar balls are a great idea.

Now let’s please see pictures of every pennant in that bin ...

I'm not into pennants but noticed this one on American Pickers tonight. It was hanging on a motorcycle they showed a picture of when Mike was negotiating a motorcycle deal in a guys garage.

That's a sweet pennant. Thanks for sharing that image. I wonder if any of those have survived the past 100 years..?

Is the illustration of a baseball player wielding a bat ... or an iron worker holding some steel?

I'll give you $500 for everything in the bin Mark sight unseen. ;)

Re-coloring Pennants?
 
So I looked back through the thread trying to find the info on how to re-color a pennant and had no luck. Can someone point me in the right direction or just message me privately.

Thanks

Always looking for vintage Tiger pennants!!
