Question of the members who frame and display their memorabilia...

I went for 9 with all different color combos. I think it came out pretty nice. If I remember correctly, its 18" x 18".....big, but certainly not huge by any stretch.

I love this, with all the variations. Are these all the known color schemes, were there nine of them exactly? And I've always wondered if the players on the other teams were selected to try to represent each team's starting lineup that season, as certainly seems to be the case with the Washington B-18s. I've always thought these colorful and artistic felts to be the unwanted but beautiful stepchild of the hobby, just waiting for the right moment to come into their full glory and appreciation. Truly mint examples with full and intact borders and no staining are very hard to find. The fold lines don't bother me at all since they are unobtrusive and original to the method of packaging.

Thanks, Hank. I did this a while back, but if memory serves me, I'm pretty sure there are more combos. The ones with yellow seem to be the hardest to find, and I vaguely remember another yellow version. I love this issue when displayed. They never seem right in a top loader

Yes, and difficult to get into an appropriate sized top loader, also. I'm sure that's why they have never been slabbed to my knowledge. On the color schemes, if I'd thought about it for a minute I'd have remembered that another one is the "brown pennants" variation for Washington, which in all other respects, including the players represented (the starting lineup of nine), is exactly the same as my framed examples with the exception of brown and red graphics rather than the green and red. Makes me wonder if anyone has tried to compile a checklist of all the known variations in the issue.

Wow is that pretty. I love the colors! As for the other 2 examples, that is exactly what I was hoping to see.....these are a great idea and I have my direction thanks to you guys. I love it and will post a pic when I get this completed....eventually!

That's a great display! I like the color variations
