Vintage University of South Carolina Hormel Pennant
A rare piece of collegiate Americana.
This Vintage University of South Carolina Hormel Pennant from the 1950s is a true collector’s item—a fragment of nostalgia from an era when collectibles defined American culture. Each pennant is framed with U/V protective glass, a cut mat, and includes a history card detailing the story of Hormel Pennants on the back. Choose from Black, Light Wood, or Mahogany frames to complement your space.
These pieces are not only historical keepsakes but also beautifully designed décor that honors the spirit and tradition of the University of South Carolina. Ideal for alumni, graduates, or passionate collectors of vintage college memorabilia.
What Is a Hormel Pennant?
In the 1950s, collectibles captured the imagination of America—baseball cards, stamps, comic books, and more. In 1953, the Hormel Company joined in by attaching over five million wool felt pennants representing 95 universities to their soup cans using rubber bands.
Once advertised in comic books and grocery stores, these 4 x 9-inch felt pennants have become exceptionally rare, with few surviving in good condition today.
At Americana Memories, each pennant is professionally preserved and framed to honor its history—making it the perfect gift for collectors or proud Gamecocks fans celebrating a milestone, graduation, or acceptance.
