So the pennant is actually not in terrible shape, but it just seems a little dirtier than my others. The white border and red background are just felt (the 70/30 wool/rayon type) and then the "STANFORD" and all the indians are flocked onto the pennant. I think maybe you are familiar with "raised felt". The issue is that they are all flocked in white and then gone over with paint afterwords. That paint gets water damage (as seen on the Indian's right shoulder sitting atop of the "F")
I may not even worry about it, but if there is a safe way, I might go that route as well. Thanks!

That's beautiful. I wouldn't touch it. The patina does not detract from it's appeal at all in my opinion. Wouldn't risk it.
How old is that? Have any others?

It's from Chicago Pennant Co and judging by the tags I think its 50's-60's. I have seen others that are easier to date (use the word "university" instead of "college" with the same tag) and those are generally in the late 50's or 60's. I think I am going to leave this one alone.
I do have some others. I am very interested in these types of pennants. I created pinterest page that I continue to update. It has most of the one's I have seen. Some are hard to get good pictures of so they havent made it. Check it out: https://www.pinterest.com/cmonkeydew...llege-banners/

Rob and Mark are big time "pennant guys," as am I. That said, I would not be above a little light cleaning on your fantastic Stanford pennant. If it were mine, I would use a mild dish or laundry soap and a soft bristle toothbrush on the white border.
But that's just me.

Sorry not Baseball
My beloved Vikings... We have a love hate relationship.
Is there a book/guide for pennants that shows relative value and scarcity?
