This pennant seemed to be especially prone to bleeding paint. I dipped a Q-tip with water and rubbed it on the red and the red started to come off. But, like I said, I was impressed with how well it got out the brown, foxing, rusty spots and how quickly it did it. I think I had the detergent mix on it for 5 minutes at most (I spooned it on to the felt areas to try to avoid paint). It also brightened up the blue fabric. The hard part is cleaning all of blue fabric that is between the graphics/letters. |
Giants, 49ers, Oilers
Once I set up an area to take pictures, I decided to take some pictures. So, here are:
SF Giants: https://photos.app.goo.gl/3asA1U9ieVAa8fqYA SF 49ers: https://photos.app.goo.gl/EJMz8fH2goMc7afWA Houston Oilers: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ebrG4CcAG2xoCM54A |
Great stuff, Marc! Interesting that the Niners basically used two colors, while the Giants are all over the color spectrum.

Finished inventory of a few more teams, came across this ... didn’t we earlier discuss Cubs and Giants pennants with the same cookie-cutter ballpark graphic?
This has to be a knock-off company ... the graphics/style are similar to Trench of the time period ... and maybe copying the stadium graphic would be too close to copyright infringement. Who knows ... |

Here is the Giants with the same stadium. Kyle suggested that it may be Busch stadium.

In addition to grouping pics by teams my eventual goal is to group by style/maker, with the help of Mr. Domer’s excellent research. Stadium pennants, scroll pennants, etc. I think even a collaboration could be in order? Book?
Anyway, here’s what I have in Keezer pennants. I suspect that I have a couple others .... eventually I’ll post them and see what y’all think. Keezers have a fairly distinct style (double stitched, mostly heavy felt but some cloth, thick tassels, one color print), many are stamped on the back but not all https://photos.app.goo.gl/CWTmDnbHaHL2XPqDA |
I don’t see any photos. :confused:
If I already had 100 Giants pictures, how long would it take to make a Google album? |
UGH I will fix it … okay now it's fixed. I have some difficulty going from phone to laptop, for some reason …
There are a few teams I am missing, and of course many teams have multiple versions. Not really anxious to "complete the set" although I'd like to find the Browns. I have a mini Keezer Browns but not fullsize. |

Rob- I just downloaded the googlephotos app to do mine. Using it was easy. Create an album and then select the photos you want to go into it from those that are already on your computer/phone. If you already have the pictures, it should go pretty quickly. You can then send a link to the album to anyone (I sent it to myself and then pasted the link).
