WHAT IS A HORMEL PENNANT?
Step back in time to the bustling 1950s, a golden age of collecting! From cherished baseball cards to captivating comic books and intricate stamps, the world was alive with treasures. In 1953, the ingenious Hormel Company seized this craze, unleashing an astounding five million 4 x 9 inch wool felt pennants, each representing one of 95 different universities. Yes, you read that right – these vibrant pennants were literally attached to their soup cans with rubber bands! Initially advertised in beloved comic books and prominently displayed in grocery stores, these special collectibles have become incredibly scarce. At Americana Memories, we've rescued and beautifully framed these historical gems, not just for your enjoyment, but to ignite cherished memories, celebrate monumental graduations and proud university acceptances, and, of course, to give you the ultimate bragging rights about your alma mater or favorite institution!
