Boston Braves 1914 Pennant

fine

Why would they not just consign that pennant to a major auction house? They would probably reach a much wider and educated audience.

Can one of the pennant experts confirm that this is an authentic pennant? It looks like one of those Frakenpennants that show up from time to time. I am not a pennant collector, but it looks really suspicious to me.

This pennant had some discussion in the last several posts of the "Hey Pennant Guys" thread....

I guess the pennant looks to good to be true? Either way, interesting to see what the outcome will be.

I hate to even comment until this thing mercifully ends. Pennant is probably ok, and has subtle differences from the Franken-pennants discussed earlier. Can expound on that in a few days.

I've reported this thing a few times over the past few days, since the bidder with 42 feedback is one of the more obvious shillings I've seen. Apparently eBay doesn't do anything about reported items any longer though, since anyone could identify the horrific shilling on this in two seconds.

unbelieveable

Everyone might want to go back to the listing on ebay and read the comment the seller posted this morning.

I'm sure that is what he's gonna do with it, donate it.

And if does, please let us know where he donates it to, would love to come take a look at it. Great pennant!

In my opinion the problem is that the guy who you may think is shill bidding on the pennant is just doing so in a way that gives the appearance of a shill bid. Most of us here recognized it from experience. The seller is saying that he is not a shill and we have to take him at his word. Problem now is he says he will end it so we will never see what happens to this great pennant and that's sad for all of us.

As I've said all week, great pennant. Thanks for letting us see it

fine

I think the pennant should sell in the $4000 to $5000 range. At this point 2 people are bidding, one shill and another. There are still 68 others watching it. Pretty soon the shill will not matter

[Shoeless Moe]

whatever

This one is going way past your guestimate.

Do I hear $8000?

[vintagesportscollector]

How many of us said OMG when they saw that jump to almost $13K?

Insane!
