Hey, pennant guys

[Fballguy]

I started the project this weekend of cataloguing hard copies of all my auction house purchases...invoices and pictures. Something I thought about doing for years but never got around to it. Both fortunately and unfortunately (for my collection), my first AH purchase was in 2017 so the invoices are all easily available. But I can't seem to pull up historical Cleansweep pictures. The invoices are there, but I don't see any way to get to the pictures. Has anyone tried this?

I was in Cooperstown today. My son is playing in a baseball tournament. One of the souvenir shops there has been in business since the 1940s, selling baseball stuff since the 1960s. This old ad from their store was posted up by the register, with some familiar looking pennants ($1.00 each).

They also still have some new old stock baseball items (no pennants, unfortunately) from 1950s-1970s. See pics below. The round felt patches have never been easy for me to find. They have a decent selection of them at the store (see pics), for a few teams at least. $10 per patch. Not so bad.

And, prince that he is, bocca called me today from Cooperstown to see if I needed anything. I did and he hooked me up. This is what the hobby is, at its best.

Great stuff Marc! Those sealed emblems are very cool. And hey...I see pennants in the bottom picture.

PS...Try Ommegang.

PPS...Only 99 degrees today. It's cooling off!

Wow...A buck a piece you think? You don't see those very often.

Pics in post 6216 … I enjoy these videos. Back then I thought they were Ad flag but they could be WGN. The Trench ASG pennants are best but for some reason they ditched the scroll that year.

There are plenty of cool 1960s NFL/AFL videos and pennant shots are plenty

It has been quite dead, hasn’t it? Some of you heavy hitters need to get busy.

As an aside, I am doubtful I will ever add another SF Giants pennant to my collection. I know what I’m looking for but doubt I’ll ever find any of them.

I feel the same way about the Rams. So my interests expand in other directions. Not a lot of old pennants turning up lately but phantom pennants have been.
