Penny wise and pound foolish. These are rare items that should be preserved and not put at risk through do-it-yourself frames and such.

Just my two cents.
Couldn't disagree more. Mike, your vintage pennants will be just fine in those frames (and they look great). Mark (perezfan) is absolutely right -- I too have put dozens of vintage pieces in antique and store bought frames, and have never had a problem of any kind.
