FWIW, I've never claimed to be an expert on pennants. Please don't include me in your current rant. That being said, I see you are back to attacking legit sellers. Yeesh...

So Scott you think that 1909 pennant is "a souvenir of the Pirates first World's Championship".....a "Pirates World Series Pennant"...."the earliest known Pirates pennant in existence"....u agree with all 3 of those statements by the seller?
and that the 1914 pennant is "a 1914 Baltimore Orioles pennant", and "the rarest Babe Ruth collectible ever offered on Ebay" I am not a pennant expert so I am looking to some of you who always comment on these vintage pennants yet for some odd reason all our "pennant guys/experts" have no comment. But again u agree with the sellers comments? |

you have 2,700 posts in 4 years.....now my math ain't too good, but I'm guessing that with 365 days in a year times 4 years you've been posting that comes to about 1400 days....meaning you've made over a post a day every day for 4 years, your the Cal Ripken of this board.....thus u've earned expert status by default.

You forgot to list Mike Egner, who wrote the Pennant Price Guide (and is a long-time Net54 member...)
My 2 cents is that these are such obvious fakes and bogus claims, that it barely even warrants a response. I don't think any right-minded person would bid high on these, so I don't find them as harmful as well-done or convincing forgeries. But someone who's ridiculously naive may still get burned. So eBay really should take these down. It is too bad that eBay allows these sellers "free reign" to make any claims they see fit. I guess they only act on bad autographs, and not much else (in the way of memorabilia). |

Oops... Missed that one. I'll have to stop doing this remotely, trying to squeeze in posts between flights.

Paul, Wow, I appreciate that you've taken the time to do all of the advanced math for us. ![]() FWIW, my posts are typically about subjects that I have interest or knowledge in, or in appreciation of something cool that another board member has posted. For the record, I choose not to comment about pennants because they are not an area that I have any expertise in. We have too many knowledgeable folks on net54 that are WAY better equipped to discuss the subject of pennants... Just call me Cal Last edited by Scott Garner; 11-05-2013 at 04:56 AM. |

It's amazing how his generic city pennants turn into rare Federal/Minor/Negro league pennants.

The claims do seem suspect, but never having handled pennants approaching that vintage, I can't speak with any authority. I try to limit my rants to subjects that I have some knowledge in ![]()

I see these claims almost daily on eBay and have for years. Most people see right through it as reflected by the low to no bidding on the items. I assume that you are stating one of these is being sold by a net54 member? I wouldn't know. I only know it's not me nor would I ever attempt it. Jason |
