And on that note...Great. Now there's another website I'll be compelled to monitor for the once in a blue moon they actually have an interesting pennant. :) |

The annual pennant sort/reconciliation is underway. Been meaning to do this since quarantine started in March.

Did you guys see this? Pretty decent price ($345) for a 10 inch pennant.

Waiting for Mark to do a Google album of his $1000+ pennants. :p |
Haha... very funny!
I threw out my back, bending down for hours and sorting thru them all last time. As a result, the chiropractic bills are about the equivalent of that '55 World Series Pennant (the one in in Lelands - not the one Greg "stole"). So if you want to come up to Seattle and help, I'll be more than happy to do the album! If it's any consolation, I am at least 20 miles away from the current insanity. :eek: |

Anyone buy this on ebay? Seller had it as an auction, starting bid of $800, but ended it early by selling to someone for $600. I couldn't find any past sales for it anywhere.

I've been playing around sorting out pennants for the past few days. Again the intent was a baseball project but I've back burnered that idea while I take inventory on my football. I'll take some Eagles pics and share. In the meantime, here's a few I took in the last 24 hours. I had no idea I had so many duplicate Rams. |
Rob those are awesome! Very cool Rams pennant on eBay, not sure if still active, with a full body ram graphic.
Can’t wait to see the Eagles and the baseball pics. By the way, do you know if there is a “Steagles” pennant in existence? I have seen the Cardinals-Steelers pennant but not Phil-Pitt. |
Great pickup Greg... You got it for a pretty nice price. His original $800 was a bit steep, but I think it's worth every penny you paid. I have the 1940 Tigers/Reds WS Pennant with same exact graphics and double-scroll. But yours is a bit rarer. Condition looks phenomenal as well. Nice pickup!
Rob- Great stuff as always. More than a few in there that I'm drooling over because they never come available. Very nice! On a separate note, I just picked up this one. It rarely surfaces, because you had to redeem trading card wrappers to get it. And normally (if you can even find one) it's badly faded and/or soiled with cracked graphics. This one was the nicest I'd ever seen, and was a nice upgrade for me.... https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-GO-...rdt=true&rt=NC I'll be looking to sell my existing one, which grades VG, and is more faded than the one linked above. If anyone is interested, please reach out for pics/pricing via email or PM. Thanks! |

Thanks about the ‘41 pennant. I’d never seen it before and image search comes up empty. I paid a BIN of $740. A tick steep? but I’m trying to get something from every Bkn Dodger WS season, don’t have 1916 or 1953. I’ve seen this style pennant for the ‘39, ‘40 series and I already had ‘47. So I wonder if the years in between were made. My guess is the 1939 Yankees-Reds pennant was the oldest to show a “scroll” of player names. I wonder if we can find the maker of these .... (Domer?) |
Would love to know the maker as well....
Greg, I have seen that one pushing $1,000 on more than one occasion. Not sure if it has ever hit 4 figures, but has come very close. You did fine with the price! |

I don't think it's by Trench. They used the same white, narrow, single name scroll throughout the late 1940s-1980s. It looked different than this.... |

Greg...Here are some of my better Eagles. I thought the pennant I had like yours was full size, but it's not. |
Rob,
Those are incredible groupings. |

The Browns, I've seen a few times. The first time was a long time ago, before I could bring myself to spend more than $150 on a pennant, so I didn't even try. Then, about three years ago on ebay, and I thought I had a rock solid bid only to see it sell for about $500 more. It ended up going for close to $1300. Clean Sweep had one in even better condition a couple years ago, but I wasn't interested in spending over $1300 when there were other pennants in the auction that I wanted and it ended up selling for only $750, which was lower than my bid in the ebay auction a year earlier. So...Long story short...I don't have either. :) |

Again ... if the winner is anyone on the board, I got a swell custom frame specifically for this pennant ...

Keezer Mfg. Co.
It's been a while since I posted anything over on Pennant Fever. The past three months of sheltering-in-place has afforded me the time to write some new content. This week I posted a story on Keezer Mfg. Co., a fairly well known and much admired pennant maker based in New England. You can find it here:
https://pennantfever.weebly.com/blog.../keezer-mfg-co Additionally, you'll find new content over on Pennant Factory, including a ca. 1960 Oakland Raiders (AFL) pennant re-make; and a ca. 1950s Collegiate of Ames "Mascot banner" re-make that both turned out nicely. See: https://pennantfactory.weebly.com/ As many of you know, there's not a lot of places to look for information on these companies and their products. I rely heavily on you all for much of what I know. So, for those of you that contribute to this thread on a daily basis, or kindly allowed me to use your photos, THANK YOU. KB |
Hey all,
I am starting to sort through about 60 pennants given to my wife and I after a grandfather passed away a few years back. There are about 30 collegiate pennants. Rumor has it, he would go to Nebraska Cornhusker games and buy the pennant of the opposing team as a souvenir. We'll, I did some looking to try and verify that. According to that logic, this Syracuse pennant would be from 1961. Does that timeline add up based on the look of the pennant? Thanks!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...64383e7283.jpg Sent from my moto g(7) power using Tapatalk |

Question for the group. What's the best way to reattach a photo to a picture pennant? I picked up a small collection this past weekend and 2 of the picture pennants came with the photos detached.

As I wait to see what else Fballguy found in his Spring cleaning, I'll add this photo (not mine) to the ongoing collection of old pennant photos.
|
That’s a great photo Marc
|
I hate seeing this thread work it’s way down the page, so here are my pennants from the under appreciated Boston Braves:

Greg, the album isn't coming up for me.... not sure whether something went wrong, or perhaps it's my computer.
Eager to see the Braves collection but (while waiting) here's a rare Milwaukee Braves that I picked up recently. Rare might be an understatement, as this is the first and only one I've ever seen. Of course now that I said that, I bet there's one already sitting in Greg's collection (which I can't see :o ) |
Mark that’s awesome! I saw that just go up on eBay. A rare one with two colored tassels. And no I don’t have it, never saw it before either. Congrats.
I’ll try to figure out what the deal is with the link. I think I have to create the album in a laptop first ... |

Phenomenal Greg...
Some very rare ones there, and love them all. Especially the top two in the first column. Great stuff! |
Mitleth- That Syracuse pennant looks like it is in great condition are all the others that nice?

It was one of those situations where the underbidder drove up the price way higher in the last 5 seconds with his snipe. I have a suspicion about who it was, but also believe they would've gone higher and won it, had they really wanted it. Either way... very happy to get it, as it's almost impossible to find new ones these days (especially on eBay). |
