Reproducing Pennants

[Nashvol]

I need insight on reproducing pennants.

I have 3 different pennants for the Nashville Vols/Sulphur Dell, all from around 1958-1961. These can be reproduced at a reasonable cost, and am leaning towards doing so because so many people write to me asking where they can purchase one and I don't believe there are a lot of these around.

I would print something on each one (probably my web site address, not sure yet) to differentiate that these are not to be confused with existing vintage pennants. I am not interested in devaluing any that collectors may have, but simply for the reason stated above.

Cost would be around $30.00. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Skip

If you think there's a market, I think it's a great idea. I would love to have reproductions of the 5-10 SF Giants pennants I am missing and will probably never find.

I'd second that, on the Giants pennants too!

Skip...I would think with the opening of the new stadium at Sulphur Dell next year it would be a great opportunity an and increased interest in this historic baseball site.

Great idea...

The pennants being made today are basically crap, so some high quality repros would make great commemoratives. And the classic Felt Pennant really is the quintessential baseball souvenir.

If you do proceed, please just be sure of 2 things...

1. Make sure that the disclaimer or web address isn't removable or easily altered. A lot of those higher-quality Mitchell & Ness Repros are still being sold as original (on ebay and elsewhere).

2. Be sure to post final result here.... would love to see how these turn out

Count me in on the great idea sentiments. I have been looking for dead ball era pennants and there is nothing out there.
