It took me 20 years to complete

[matty39]

I won my first BF3 premium over 20 years ago and my last one in January. There are only 10 known in the set.
My final one was the Cobb. As you can see it is trimmed and has sewing machine stitching around its perimeter. I have a theory about that. I used to have a McGraw pennant trimmed the same way. Both were probably trimmed and sewn onto large in-store displays advertising a bread promotion. The "blotter" below would explain that promotion.
Whatever you like to believe is fine with me. I am just excited to have finished the project. At 81 I doubt I have another 20 year one in the system.

Matty,
Congrats on completing this long-term project. That's awesome!

amazing! Great work! Ive spent 8 years trying to create a Joe Tinker pinwheel and am still 3 short. This seems way harder to pull off!

I have seen one other Cobb that has the light pink tint like your McGraw. No stitching or trim around that one. Same photo.

Fantastic! Would the Evers in the blotter picture make 11 known in the set?

Sweet work! Congratulations! Here’s to 20 more years, brother...

Hank, The pennant of Evers on the blotter is actually taken from the pillow top premium and enlarged.
