Found on EBay – Theda Bara

theda_bara_pennant_02 Movie memorabilia comes in all shapes and forms, but I’ve never seen a pennant like this Theda Bara item before.  A little research shows that a series of nearly 200 such pennants was issued about 1915. Ooh, is that a Hobart Bosworth? A lot of 192 of these movie pennants sold for $907.52 in 2008, about $4.72 each.  Bidding starts at 24.99 GBP (the vendor is located in the UK).
