RARE Vintage Astros Pennant Keezer any thoughts

[stoogeco]

Thanks or the help so far. So I guess at $100 its a good buy?

I would certainly think so, but scant "history" seems to dictate otherwise.

It all depends on how much you like it (and for what reasons...)

* If you love it but let it slip by, you might never see another and regret letting it go.

* If you are indifferent, and are just looking to flip it, you might exercise caution.

Either way, great post and best of luck!

All of us are guilty of paying a little to much for something but like Mark said if you like it buy it. And to Quote the American Pickers Mike and Frank the time to buy something is when you havnt seen it before!

Is it made of the thick soft felt Keezer is known for or is it the newer stiff synthetic stuff? If the former, I think $100 is fair. But as Mark said, it might not be a great flip because I'm not sure how many Astros collectors exist.

Thanks for all the help. I am indifferent to this (Cubs Fan) and this is going to be a flip. I think it should go for much more than the $100 as there are no other recent comparisons. I guess we will see. Ebay is probably not the best venue for it. Any thoughts? Thanks again.

Soft or stiff?

I think that's important. It might not be a great flip unless you get at least two Astros fans. I'm not even sure Colt 45's collectors collect Astros.

Yeah, I'd be careful. This pennant which I realize is a mini pennant, but it is real felt and is the only example I could find on worthpoint only sold for $25.

$100 for the one you posted seems risky for a flip.

We do. But that seems a little above the premium I would be willing to pay. Great image though. Way cool item.
