1909 Pennant

[Shoeless Moe]

you have 2,700 posts in 4 years.....now my math ain't too good, but I'm guessing that with 365 days in a year times 4 years you've been posting that comes to about 1400 days....meaning you've made over a post a day every day for 4 years, your the Cal Ripken of this board.....thus u've earned expert status by default.

You forgot to list Mike Egner, who wrote the Pennant Price Guide (and is a long-time Net54 member...)

My 2 cents is that these are such obvious fakes and bogus claims, that it barely even warrants a response. I don't think any right-minded person would bid high on these, so I don't find them as harmful as well-done or convincing forgeries. But someone who's ridiculously naive may still get burned. So eBay really should take these down.

It is too bad that eBay allows these sellers "free reign" to make any claims they see fit. I guess they only act on bad autographs, and not much else (in the way of memorabilia).

Oops... Missed that one. I'll have to stop doing this remotely, trying to squeeze in posts between flights.

WHAT?!?!? Can't hear you because of this deafening silence!

looks like the buying public believes the Baltimore one to be the more "real" of the 2....so far.....we'll see where they end on Sunday night.


The current Score:
Baltimore $127.50 (26 watchers)
Pittsburgh $22.50 (28 watchers)

Ok...I know my way around a pennant, so get me on that list fella

These pennants are complete rubbish. They are decorative, perhaps vintage (except Baltimore which is crap not rubbish), and charming, but they have little value and I wouldn't purchase them.

Paul,
Wow, I appreciate that you've taken the time to do all of the advanced math for us.

FWIW, my posts are typically about subjects that I have interest or knowledge in, or in appreciation of something cool that another board member has posted.

For the record, I choose not to comment about pennants because they are not an area that I have any expertise in. We have too many knowledgeable folks on net54 that are WAY better equipped to discuss the subject of pennants...

Just call me Cal

Thanks all.......I'm sure the seller will make a few bucks off the naive and uneducated.......welcome to America.......but I just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing anything on these 2, didn't think so, but like to throw it out there.
