Funny that they include the Cubs and Pilots pennants with this "1951" grouping. Especially since the date of the Pilots is right on the pennant.

I can’t even imagine how much that frame weighs. Would need some real anchoring on the wall.

Not very practical but I love the ballpark backdrop.

Brutal! Not just the repro Cubs but the tips of the pennants in the left column are covered ... my OCD would be blown up by that monstrosity. There’s a certain feng shui to proper pennant decoration, mixing colors, etc. Or maybe I’m just nuts.

I store mine like Mark, in tubs ... I have nine under the pool table and a tenth is in a closet (with mostly 1970s).

Speaking of pennant decoration ... I was psyched to get a good deal on this oversized White Sox until I realized it doesn’t display well in the dungeon. All my pennants run parallel. I might have to turn the letters

Glad you were able to add this to your collection. I was almost relieved it wasn’t a Cubs version or I would have been in the bidding and probably a lot poorer in the end.

Kyle...Don't think you've finished your piece on Amco yet. Here's a cleaner shot of the Amco subscript.

Gotta love how the seller conveniently leaves out the truly important info, and stacks the pennant on top of vintage examples. I am sure he knew what it really is.

In the "olden days", I would email the buyer to alert him to the obvious fake he just bought. But with eBay now hiding all bidders' identities, people are getting bilked a lot more. A bad move IMHO

So....a 1955 Champs pennant shows Ebbetts closing in 1957? PT Barnum was right!

Thanks. If it was Cubs it would have pushed five figures.

I'm not really a fan of that presentation for multiple reasons (overlapping on the pennants being one, and just the general "hodge podge" of it being another), but in their defense the first line of the story says "...pennants dating back to 1951..." so it's just the title that is misleading.

Also, there seems to be a glaring typo in the write up : when they say "making sixteen pennants work collectively in one 57” x 88” case provided an exciting challenge." I believe that they meant to say "stuffing", "wedging" or "forcing" instead of "making".

But I could be wrong,
Doug

Just from a decorative standpoint, the way the pennants are displayed is rather unsightly. At least he didn’t make a wheel out of them ....

Just acquired this fairly tough version from the series which included several different Cubs examples.

It does look like they were filling in space with various doodles.

This is about the nicest and cleanest example of this pennant I have ever seen. Really nice and tough pennant.

Was anybody here able to snag this one?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1950s-Vinta...p2047675.l2557

One of very few rare/desirable pennants to hit eBay over the past few months (which may have been reflected in the final price). Congrats to whoever won it!

Saw that one and bid on it for resale, but didn’t win it. Good prices lately for tough pennants.

Marc and I were negotiating this one on Friday. The condition bothered him more than me, so I went for it. Plus, this pennant is one of my three nemesis pennants, that I just seem to have a curse preventing me from owning. Something always goes wrong when I've attempted to win it in the past...computer glitches...wife distractions. So I was pretty determined this time.

I ended up coming in second. I sniped what I thought would be an umbrella bid, thinking I had about a $50 margin over sale price, but nope. That's the strongest price (and in the worst condition) I've seen for that pennant over the last 5-10 years.
