Good point Clint. I actually moved things around my office today and am going to build a nice oak case in a corner. I'm working on design elements now. |

Matt, I agree completely. I just watched two Spalding bats go higher than I've ever seen. A Keeler Gold Medal sold over $1100 and a Evers Gold Medal went for over $600. I've noticed that quality early bats are getting fewer and far between. |

Nice shoot'n on the ring bat Brock...36" is a good size. Any maker? how about a close up of the ring and barrel end? It appears to have the classic (and all important to me) squared barrel end |

Hey, I finally added something baseball in the last year! Don't get too excited now...but it's the first thing I've seen that wasn't priced at a gazillion dollars. Will still look good next to the other pins I guess. |

No maker on the ring bat Carlton. I'll post some more pics shortly. Camera battery is currently dead. But the bat does have the squared off, flat top like you mentioned. Bat has several nice 19th century characteristics; long and heavy, center rings, flat top, and a miniscule little knob. |

Keith, great pickups there...the Peru pennant is most likely Nebraska State Normal School...now know as Peru State College. |

Keith, I just now noticed the Cotner pennant. It is from a defunct college in Lincoln, NE. Cotner College. |

I've never purchased a spoon before, but I'm a real sucker for anything with crossed bats on it. So when this turned up on ebay, I picked it up. |

Ooops Carlton, I logged in but I guess I forgot to fill in the name slot. Thanks for the info, I can't wait to read the writeup. That is great that it may be an early version. I know Hunts had one 2 years ago that had the same graphics, however in a slightly different orientation, with the little boy in the right corner, and the pennants in the upper left and right corner. |

Keith the NWU Pennant is Nebraska Wesleyan...which is also located in Lincoln..and I'm guessing by this point the Red swatch with the N on it is from the U of Nebraska. Heck the only Lincoln school your missing there is Union College. |

Dan- thanks for helping out. You are a good man. I am going to delete the rest of this idiot's posts. I doubt it's the owner of that site......as he and I have had very good interactions before. Maybe he hired a sales guy .... |

I think this pennant was listed the day after the first one ended. Seems like the seller probably saw the price the first one sold for and realized what a gem they had. Congrats Jim. |

Mike great pick up. How many different Prewar Tigers pennants are known? It seems like I see a different one everytime I look and they're all pretty sweet. |

Posted By: Mike H
Thanks guys. Nobody knows for sure how many styles and variations exist, but the Tigers seem to have been toward the top of the list when you consider design, quality, and variety. I love the fact that they dated so many pennants and incorporated unique design features to many. I only have 13 Tigers pennants, but I only collect thier pre 1950 pieces. |

I really like Detroit's pennants, including the postwar ones. I'm particularly fond of the versions with color team photos. |

Dan, yeah it's first generation although the back is stamped 1920. I'm sure the picture was taken a few years earlier though. David if I'm wrong correct me here. Here's what the back looks like. |
