Well I would think that the tassels were damaged and the seller amputated them completely so that it might appear that it was made that way (without tassels). If we weren’t avid collectors, would we have any idea that this isn’t as it was originally?

I didn’t grow up buying pennants made with tassels, if I did there would be no way they’d still be intact. I still have my “originals” and they look like they endured a nuclear attack, with all the times I pulled them off and on my bedroom wall.

Cool pennant, very bright …
