Cincinnati Banner display
For similar banners, I had a local plastic bag mfgr. make a rectangular "pennant sleeve" for me. I got (2) 1x4's, cut them just short of the distance between the two grommets on the spine of the banner, clamped them together and then drilled 1/4" holes approx. 6" apart the length of the boards at 1" below the edge. Then I placed the banner inside the "sleeve", overlapped the plastic at the spine, inserted the enclosed banner between the two boards and clamped the boards together with 1/4" bolts, flat washers on both sides, a lock washer and nut on the back. Then I took two small eyelets, screwed them into the boards approx. 12" from each end. ran framing wire from eyelet to eyelet with slack and hung the banner on the wall.
This way there is no pressure on the body of the banner and since the "sleeve "is not longer than the banner, the bottom can't go anywhere.
Hope this helps and enjoy, Len
