I've seen a LOT of pennants over the years, and can't say with absolute certainty... But I would estimate late 1940s for this one, and a value between $60 - $75.
College stuff just doesn't ralize the prices it should... these pennants are always valued far lower than professional ones. I have countless times, seen gorgeous oversized examples from the teens sell for under $100 (and in near-perfect condition).
Regardless, yours is a beautiful example, and the artisrty of the Bruin is striking, to say the least.
Hope this helps,
Mark
Editing to ask.... Does the 33" length include the tassels, or is that the length of the pennant itself? If the body of the pennant is 33", then it's worth close to $100. If it's a standard 29" pennant (which it looks like in the photo), it's worth $60 - $75. Thanks!
