Am I right that these look like the spines have been re-sewn. (I don't have a problem with it either way...they didn't cost much.)
Looks original to me ... hold up to a light and see if there are holes from a previous stitch. These pennants of still unknown origin/maker are very cool but sometimes have production issues with the spine, including two pieces sewn continuously as one.
