I have this vintage Chicago Cubs pennant but I can't seem to find any information on its age/price. Anyone have an idea? I would GREATLY appreciate it.
Thanks!

http://compare.ebay.com/like/120755756697?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&_lwgsi=y found that you could prob get 150 for yours but i would frame it and keep it. i sold a bunch of them that i had and now i regret it. how much did you get it for?
Any idea on actual year? And I got it for about 25$. So 150 would be awesome. If it were a red sox pennant I might keep it, but I wouldn't want a cubbies pennant.
no idea on the exact year, $25 wasnt a bad deal but im looking at it more closely and it looks like its a bit dirty so you might get alittle less then 150, which its still good. Some advice, i would keep it in a safe dry place(dont try to clean it) and wait for a good time for the cubs, then you might get good money for it. But thats just me :)
But will there ever be a good year for the cubs? That's the question... ;p
ahha well you like the cubs at least 25 dollars worth! :)
The Real question; was it made the same year Wrigley was built. That will up the value to a Real Cub Fan....
I have no clue as I don't know the exact year.
The put it in a frame or hard plastic case and keep it..
No, it was not made the same year Wrigley Field was made(1914). This pennant was made sometime after 1926.
This is a very common piece from a popular set produced in the 50s. In mint condition it will bring $75-$100. In this condition probably $35-$45. It's a nice wall hanger.
