Own a rare piece of early American college history.

This authentic 1920s University of Louisiana vintage wool felt pennant dates back to the early era of collegiate athletics and campus pride. Carefully preserved and professionally framed, this antique collectible transforms nearly century-old memorabilia into timeless wall décor.

Originally, this pennant was part of a sewn “pennant wheel” display, a popular decorative style in the early 20th century where multiple pennants were stitched together and hung on the wall. A photo of the original wheel configuration is included to showcase the historic context of the piece.

Each pennant is framed in Black, Light Wood or Mahogany finished with U/V-protective glass and a precision-cut mat to protect the delicate wool felt while highlighting its authentic vintage character. Natural aging, texture, and patina make every piece uniquely one-of-a-kind.
