I don't know how I have been in the hobby this long without having gone down this road. Frankly, I am a bit jealous.  I have seen some really neat framed jobs so far. Do you frame your own? In most cases the frames look roomy enough so that it wouldn't be too hard to do. Please keep posting these beauties. I hope to purchase a few this year. |
Glad you like this thread, Robert. I am one of the "pennant guys." Not

SEEM like they shouldn't be impossible. I'll take this oppurtunity to post a few of my "most wanted." In order of pictures posted, I have seen these pennants offered for sale this many times: once, once, a couple of times, once, once (a unique variation of a more common series), never, never.
