BF2 premiums

[bcornell]

There have been a few informative threads about Ferguson Bakery issues (which almost certainly don't include the BF2 small pennants). You can learn a lot from reading through the posts.

Discussion about whether Ferguson issued BF2's (2005)

Large pennants and pillowcases (2013)

Another discussion about Ferguson Bakery issues (2013)

Here are images of the 2 premium pillowcases, one ex-Luckey and the other one in the current Leland's auction.

The pillowcases have some of the same players (although not all), however they're not in the same order, plus a few players have different felt colors on the lighter pillowcase. These look to my eyes like they were homemade.

Just came across three ads that continue to complicate the source or sources for Ferguson bf2s. In these ads the actors pennants both large and small are available from places other than the Ferguson bakery, making a stronger case that the small baseball pennants may have been available from other sources . This is the first time that I have ever seen a source for the large pennants other than the Ferguson blotter ad.

good info - thanks for the share. Unsure why I did it as I've long since run out of room - but I "won" the pillow top premium of the theater stars at Heritage. Only one I've come across and I've been priced out of the market on most better early base ball stuff of a similar nature.

little bit ancillary info added to what was here that someone might find useful as they try and decipher the puzzle. If not - oh well
