Okay so maybe I haven’t been THAT inactive on eBay …
Two super-sized (5-1/2 feet long) 1969 ASCOs popped up. Similar composition to my others except these don’t have grommets. The seller claims these were hung with others at the ‘69 ASG in DC which was initially postponed by rain, causing the noticeable bleeding on the Dodgers spine. (1st pic is from the auction.) Who knows if true but there was a rain out. Maybe it was at an event or something. I’d love to know more about them. Bleeding typically is, for me, a fatal flaw. I can cope better with missing tassels or tip. But I took a gamble that I could get it out. Turns out I had a metal yardstick that fit perfectly in the spine, so I made a 20/80 bleach/water solution and brushed it on it … it worked great with no spotting at all on the underneath blue. Bleeding all gone. That makes 6 teams now and 18 to go. LOL. No shot. But Id love to get a super-sized Pilots if one still exists. I think I saw a Twins somewhere … Last edited by thetahat; 10-06-2022 at 07:21 PM. |

I don't have this in hand yet...waiting for delivery. But I couldn't believe my luck when I came across this 1936 Yankees Grommet Pennant and managed to win it.

Absolutely gorgeous. Fantastic pickup Gary.

That’s a great pennant. I bid against Mark on the one he has. Nice pick up and obviously I’m jealous.

Not sure if anyone got in on the player photo pennants that Troy had in the last Mears auction. Some incredibly rare player pennants including Mantle and Banks. Brought good money, but if your waiting for the next ones you may be waiting for a long time.

Those were so cool. Didn’t know that so many were even made, though it was just a Twins thing and maybe star players. Big fan here of ASCO pennants.

Anyone else see this up on Ebay? Wonder what standards they used to come up with the grade on it.

Those are great ones. I was talking to a friend during the auction about how nice that Koufax is other than the spine. Doesn’t both leave that much because it’s mint otherwise. Just for info, Koufax comes in at least one other pose. Nice to get the Drysdale too. They are just way too rare to pass up in great condition. Now you just have to keep buying the other Dodgers guys when they come up. I’ve never seen that Yankees / Dodgers HOF game either. That’s the kind of weird stuff I would have been all over if I saw it. Nice pick up. Rare graphics for 1972. |

Thanks Jason. Which auction was it that you and Mark bid at? I'm trying to get a benchmark of how often the grommet pennants come up for sale.

It was eBay I believe and they don’t really come up for sale.
