Thanks Alan, Packs. I just happen to have some pics - added to above post.

It was very stiff and heavy prior to cleaning - now it's as soft and supple as any glove I own. The gray 'before' color is very accurate - I was surprised it was so white beneath the dirt.

Also, cleaning the white ones is a tricky process. You can't use any conditioners (oils, etc.) - the spot shown on the finger is the result of accidentally lying the glove in some Lexol. It has to wear away, and it takes a long time, like months or longer.

OK, my education continues...I had posted this in the autograph pick up thread. D'oh!

It measures 9 x 3.5'. Made by Paramount Flag Co. of SF. It will not lay completely flat, so I'm thinking it was not bunting hung from a rail but rather a bunting that "wrapped around" a podium or something like that...

Rob that is an awesome piece! I'm always searching for similar items in black and gold

Just picked this up from a seller on eBay. Managers' fan with my great grandpa Billy Sullivan Sr., among others. Been looking for one for a while, but lost out in the last couple of auctions.

Very nice! Do you have any personal game items from your great grandpa?

Was wondering the same! Any Banana Bats left over?
