ca. 1909 B/W image of a San Francisco college dorm room
 

I think I found a picture of Marc's college bedroom online....

The Gibson Girls were a nice touch, Marc!

:)

How did you know that I went to Girl's High?

Lots of cool stuff in the pic. I've never seen the Santa Clara pennant on the wall, or the blanket on the bed. Would love to find them. There is also a Santa Clara vs. St. Mary's football program on the back wall, also from 1909.

The top Giants pennant is one of the first ones I purchased when I started collecting pennants. Every time I see one of these come up for auction, I never even really bother to look at it, because I already have it. I noticed the bottom one on ebay a few weeks ago. It has much better graphics (you can actually see facial features), so I bought it.

I wonder if the better graphics have to do with the nicer one using better materials, or if the screens actually get worn over time (like a sculpture mold) and lose detail?

Nice. But they seem to be different screens. Look at the top of the bridge.

You must have been really good at where's Waldo :)

Everything else about the pennant is so similar. I suppose the screen was copied at some point? And lost some detail? Everything else in the image lost definition, but that piece at the top pf the bridge is simply gone.

Here are three slightly different versions I picked up this past month. Yes, I'm that bored, waiting for something really cool to show up.

^^^^ So, who made these pennants? I can keep track.

Even the panel underneath is different … one has four openings the other has six

Definitely Ad Flag

Anyone want to try to name the different paint colors in the three pennants?

Gold, orange, pink.
