Excellent haul...especially considering how dry the pennant scene has been as of late. The Paige pennant wouldn't barely register with me as having condition issues. If it's not ripped, stained or written on...it's just patina.

Agree... that's a very nice Paige, and you'd have been crazy to let it go (given the rarity and historical importance). Those are pretty minor condition issues in the scheme of things.

Awesome haul.... cannot believe how much quality vintage pennants have dried up, vs. years past. If not for a Reds pennant my friend Sean recently found for me, it's been 7-8 months since I've found one worth buying. My longest drought in past 30 years! :eek:

Thanks guys. Trying to find bargains where I can.

The 1978 ASG was really dirty and I bought it on the hope that I could clean it. It took a bit of soaking (and a little bleach) but it turned out rather nice.

This is the before and after.

Looks like mine!

Nice result. Gotta love the original Swingin' Friar!

Nice haul! Quick side question on the 1968 Tigers Roster...who are Hand and Behm? Thanks for any thoughts.

Bill Behm and John Hand were the trainers.
