Here is a fun one. Somebody posted this pennant on Facebook earlier this week in both of the well known vintage pennant groups. They were asking for info about age etc. Some of us informed the poster that it was a great vintage pennant, made by the Reproduction Company. One of the group moderators literally "shamed" us for making such a suggestion, as the label says "reproduction" right on it. He then deleted the thread off of his board. Maybe after I posted a link to Kyle's great review/history of Repco.
It sold very quickly on ebay the same day as a best offer. The asking price was high (3500) so I'm guessing the offer was decently sized as well.
