WHAT IS A HORMEL PENNANT?
Step back to the thrilling 1950s, a golden era for collectibles! Baseball cards, captivating comic books, stamps – the craze was undeniable. In a stroke of marketing genius in 1953, the Hormel Company tapped into this excitement, unleashing over 5 million vibrant wool felt pennants, each a miniature masterpiece representing 95 different universities. Can you believe they were attached to soup cans with rubber bands? Seriously – talk about a delicious surprise!

Once famously advertised in those very same comic books and prominently displayed in grocery stores, these special collectibles have become incredibly rare. But fear not, history hounds! At Americana Memories, we've rescued these treasures and attractively framed them, transforming them into stunning display pieces. They're perfect for rekindling cherished old memories, celebrating monumental graduations and proud university acceptances, and, of course, giving you the ultimate bragging rights about your beloved school. This isn't just a Hormel Pennant; it's a testament to a bygone era, a vibrant piece of history waiting to be yours!
