Finally crossed this tough one off my list, with advice from Rob and Rob about what to do and what to not do, I went ahead and cleaned it. It was even more browned/yellowed in person than my original iphone picture made it look. I put it face down on some towels and sprayed with with a solution of maybe 25% bleach and 75% water. I blocked off the spine with some plastic. That left a bit of yellowing near the spine. I then used a small paint brush to apply some of the bleach/water mixture up near the spine. It did not come quite as clean as ones that can take a more concentrated bleach spray, but the red on this one is so ready to run. When I was using the brush to touch up on the front, I got just a bit of the solution in the red paint and it ran immediately. So spraying from the back is the way to go if you ever want to try this yourself on a pennant with red graphics.
