New arrival today. That makes 9 ASG Pennants. This was was auctioned already in the frame just to make my life a little easier
 Apart from a tack hole near the tip, the condition is pretty nice.

There are other non-Trench ASG scroll pennants of course but these are the nicest.

To continue on ASG pennants … I don’t know of any Trenches for the ‘60 game at Yankee stadium nor 1964 at Shea. My hypothesis is that a local NY non-trench company made these. 1965 was ASCO (Minneapolis) and 1961 in Boston was Keezer. (None of these are mine.)

Latest pickup and cleaning project. Was able to snag this one off ebay the other day and gave it a few rounds of retro clean. The first round was only 5 minuets in the solution. Second round was 10 minuets and the final round was 15 minuets. I played it safe and only used 3-4 tablespoons of retro to 1 gallon of warm water. I kept a close eye on the lettering and tiger the entire time to make sure it didn't start to crack or flake off. As you can see by the picture of the water after the first soak the pennant was really dirty. Overall I'm happy with the results and will quit while I'm ahead. On a side note this is one of my favorite designs the Tigers did using this style tiger. I have several other pennants that use this same tiger.

Nice work Stephen. That's a gutsy move. Don't think I've tried cleaning anything that old. Good to know the water and/or RC doesn't harm the graphics.
Seeing that pic of the water gives me an idea. To enter the fraternity of hunters, one drinks the blood of their first kill. To enter the fraternity of pennant collectors, should we have to drink pennant water? Or maybe just draw a cross with it on the newbie's forehead? Thoughts?

Haven't posted a new pick up here in a long time. I watched this thing cycle through ebay a few times and was just floored by the lack of interest. Finally, it got to the point that I couldn't not buy it. $48.26 with tax and shipping for a 100 year old Ivy League pennant? 35" Long. This thing should be selling for hundreds not tens. I don't understand it. You'd think pennants would appeal to Ivy Leaguers of all people...but not so much.
