I think the market has spoken. $305, and probably not worth that.

Recent acquisition. Do the Tigers collectors know anything about this? I can't find another example ...

That’s a pretty sweet banner. I’ve never seen that one or one that early like it.

That’s sweet! Satin-like? How big is it?

It’s about 40x28 inches. Yes it’s a satin-like fabric and the graphics are screened.

I think I missed the second picture, when I first saw your post. Is that stitch work to give it a “shimmering” effect? I’d love to know who made it.

Too bad you have no wall space!

Yeah that’s a deliberate pattern in the fabric.

It came with a thick dowel and a rope to hang, but the dowel was broken. Off to Michaels for a replacement. I’ll find room for it.

On this note … what other “banners” do you guys have? It seems to be that the Tigers, Dodgers, and Reds have a few of these so I’m figuring Mark S. and Bumpus Jones have pics to share?

These are the only two Tiger banners I own. I was watching the 34 banner and doing some research. Best I can tell is it was sold by the old Hudson store which use to be downtown Detroit on Woodward Ave. Hudson's was a big supporter of the Tigers and would always hang banners on their building during the season and WS. There is a version of the 68 banner I have that's white that was sold by Hudson's after the Tigers won the WS.
