1914 (?) Boston Braves Pennant
On John Thorn's wonderful Our game blog, he posted about the 1914 Braves. Included was a photo of this pennant. I've never seen it before. Vintage? Homemade? fantasy?

Homemade fantasy
Hi Max,
My vote is for homemade/fantasy. Someone attached an authentic B18 blanket to this homemade pennant. Patrick |

IF that's the case, it's very well done!

I agree that it is a homemade/fantasy pennant.

This was my first instinct as well. Very well done. Still a great piece.

NOT a Fantasy piece....
Materials are of the era, and pennant was likely constructed during the purported period. So while it may be one of a kind, and "home made", it was not produced to deceive (like some of the "Franken-pennants you see on ebay). It is a marvelous and legitimate piece, and can best be thought of as period folk art. |

I think it's based on the intent (just my opinion). To me, "Fantasy" has a negative connotation, but perhaps it's open to interpretation.
Anyway, here's a link to this pennant in SCP... https://catalog.scpauctions.com/LotD...entoryid=28580 |
