Jason, yeah, I do worry the whole time they are gone that they will return just as they left. I try to deal with major museums only in the hopes they know what they are doing. I have turned down requests when I don't know the organization very well. My biggest concern was when I lent items to Dodger Stadium for their pop-up museum since I knew they used florescent lights and there were a lot of windows. But all of my exhibits had UV filtering acrylic to protect them, and the exhibit was only for a couple of months. I enjoy sharing items from my collection, and I guess that outweighs my concerns for the slight risk they will be damaged in some manner.

Yeah, I enjoy sharing stuff too. Wish caretakers and historians cared as much as we do.

Rick, you’re a better man than I.

I won’t even leave a valued piece with a professional framer, in the fear they’ll “f” something up. I must have at least 300 framed pieces, and have done every single one myself.

Same here Mark.

An ugly pennant, for sure. I assumed Ad Flag until recently noticing that the lettering is distinctly WGN.

Disagree, Greg. I think that’s beautiful! You own the full sized version?

Hmmm, I think Greg’s correct. I am selling about 20 vintage Angels pennants on eBay (a few sold) And his keen eye recognized this one, but the others are all vintage. I’ll adjust the listing. Thx for bringing it up!
