Those are great. A "tassel implant" wouldn't be too hard on the Yankees. If you didn't know, the tassels were usually one piece, folded over.

Thanks. That's very useful info. Now, I'll need to find a pennant to use for "parts"

Or, just get a piece of felt at a craft store. About 25 cents, USD.

Has anyone had any luck finding pennant poly sleeves? I have plenty of toploaders, looking for sleeves. Large quantities that is

Pennantdynasty (Matt?) on eBay has nice, clear ones.

Someone here might have his direct contact info to avoid tax and fees.

I may have to play Devil's Advocate here...

Seems like it would be "aesthetically challenging" to blend brand new tassels with an old pennant. The material and color would never be right. I'm afraid the tassels would stand out like a sore thumb. Plus it would (personally) bug me having new felt incorporated on a vintage piece.

I would find a beater with the appropriate tassels, to use for the "transplant". Just my personal OCD speaking...

Also... If you ever find yourself in a position to sell, these alterations should be disclosed. Nothing at all wrong with spiffing up pennants for personal display. But the "imported" parts should definitely be disclosed when selling.

I hear ya, Mark.

Definitely disclose if you were ever to sell.

That said, the remaining blue tassel looks pretty bright…I’ll bet you could match it. Michael’s, for example, has a big selection of 8x10 pieces.

Co-signed. Alterations should be disclosed when selling. Otherwise, it’s fraud.

That was my thinking too. I'd prefer the tassels to be "of the period". Certainly, it's something to disclosed when selling.


Rob, I like your idea but I know that my arts and crafts skills are pretty limited. I wouldn't trust myself even with cutting a tassel. (I still have nighmares about the monstrous ashtrays I made at summer camp.)

New Packers mini for the collection
 

I hadn't seen this one before.
