Perfect Game Pennant Appraisal

Matt Cain Perfect Game Commemorative Pennant

This is a commemorative felt pennant celebrating Matt Cain's perfect game on June 13, 2012, the first perfect game in San Francisco Giants history. The pennant is primarily black felt with screen-printed graphics in orange, white, and gray tones. It features a full-color image of Matt Cain in his pitching motion, wearing a white San Francisco Giants uniform with orange accents, against a background that appears to be a faded or stylized image of a baseball field or another action shot. Text on the pennant includes 'Matt Cain Perfect Game', 'June 13, 2012', and 'First Perfect Game in Giants History'. A prominent graphic depicts the inning-by-inning scoreline for the game, showing 'HOU 000000000 000' and 'SF 2321200010 150', indicating a 10-0 victory. The San Francisco Giants 'SF' logo is visible, as is the MLB logo near the pointed end of the pennant. There's also a smaller tag or sticker at the top that reads 'FELT PENNANT Roll it Up Take it Home'. The pennant appears to be in good condition with no visible tears, significant creases, or fading considering its age, suggesting it has been well-preserved. There are no obvious signs of repair or heavy wear. The top edge is finished with a white or light-colored tape binding, allowing for easy display. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced sports memorabilia pennants from the early 21st century, focusing on clear graphic reproduction and durable felt material. Its estimated age is from 2012, directly following the event it commemorates.
