Thanks, guys. I really just wanted the Senators one but the lot was too tempting to pass up. The Mets one is a little dirty from what I can tell so I’ll be looking for some cleaning tips if you guys have any.

To me, finding things like this (variations that are not so expensive, but unique or interesting) is fun and one of the reasons why I enjoy the hobby.

Haha. That's funny. I knew I wanted one after I saw it, just could not decide how faded it was. It is not as red as similar felt single bar pennants, but the color is same front and back. So it may be uniform fading due to the dye not lasting, but at least it is not a crazy sun fade.

Look underneath the edge of the spine. My guess is that it’s the same shade of red and you have a minty pennant.

Also: check the stitch. I’m guessing that it is similar to that of your 1982 pennant. That’s how my Eagles version is. Not typical of Trench, just as the cloth spine is not. But everything else screams Trench. A guess would put it roughly between the mid-60s logo versions and the first iteration of the 1967 trademark single bars. I don’t know enough about the other teams to pin it down.

I think you’d be safe with Oxyclean. Put a scoop in about an inch of bathwater. Keep an eye on it.

What do we make of this? It's flocking weird (and too expensive).

Legit 1930s and maybe priced reasonably. The same batter graphic appears on other unflocked 1930s that are same size.

That baseball stiching hurts my eyes.

How big is that? My uneducated guess says Tacoma.

Or, it could be neither. I think it would be hard to prove if this pennant is previously unknown.

I associate the "go go" memorabilia with the late 50s and 1960s, which to me makes this most likely a Detroit Tigers pennant. But anyone's guess is as good as the next. Unless of course, you think you know it all.
