Here are three spectacular banners - two are 24-by-46 inches - from SMU Princeton and Cornell immortalizing school colors with large block letters in felt. Princeton has bright orange letters stating same all caps and carefully stitched to the black wood background with nary a trace of any fraying of the delicate stitching. Cornell has its colors on display white and carnelian the former having softened to a light cream color and the latter being elite-speak for Big Red. The Cornell banner has a white edged border of approximately one inch. The third banner is SMU different size - about 16-by-20 inches - with "Southern Methodist University" in all caps and red felt above the SMU horsey logo also in red felt. There are no real condition issues with any of the banners though all three might reveal the tiniest pinholes around corners where they had once been affixed in some rooting fashion. Includes a Letter of Authenticity from the Helms/LA 84 Collection.
