Nice work with the Oxy guys. It does a good job not only with overall discoloration but if there are spots too. They come out just by soaking, no spot treatment necessary. Late 70s into the 80s is the sweet spot for Oxy. It's harsher than retro clean but the newer pennants hold up to it.

And like Marc said, no need to hold down. I just make sure the pennant is saturated thoroughly then let it float until I like the results. And be careful with red. It's totally doable, just requires a little more attentiveness because red spines will definitely run. But if you swish the water every 15 minutes or so, the red washes away and will eventually stop running.

I was just extolling the virtue of 80s pennants to Kyle yesterday so these posts are very timely. There are some very rare pennants from the 80s, if you can stomach wading through all the 80s junk. Keep it up. Maybe we can start a movement.

I doubt the “Heavy Hitters” will ever wade into the (19)80s :rolleyes:

Geez, Trench …

Too soon??

Too soon. :p

Well that's pretty morbid for a non-sports pennant. I'm glad they didn't do this type of thing with their sports pennants, or we might have...

The paralysis of Roy Campanella
The freezing of Ted Williams' head
The snapping of Joe Theisman's leg
The suicide of Donnie Moore
or
The injection of Barry Bonds' butt cheek

(Apologies to Rob for that last one)

They could at least have made a Giants Polo Grounds pennant with a little guy using binoculars in the outfield ….

Think of the possibilities with OJ. The fun the air brusher could have with that. "OJ kills Nicole". It would look like a Jackson Pollock painting.

Wonder which company made this societal reject? If they had a Manson Family pennant, I'd be all over it.

Did you guys see the thread “Looking for Ted Williams pieces”?

A smart ass reply instantly came to my mind.

Man, we're going downhill fast. Not sure I can ever look at a Pollock painting the same way again. :eek:
