Edited to add: looking at that Babe Ruth pennant would certainly give me pause before I bid on the Reds one.

Well, at least the seller's 1908 Baseball in Cincinnati was real.
Pretty frightening with these pennants. When viewed together, it's pretty clear they are not vintage.
I just hope people stay away from artificially aged reproductions of baseball books
