**Historic Cornell Pennant Resurfaces, Sparking Interest in University Memorabilia**
A distinctly unique artifact from the early 1900s has come to light—an original Cornell University pennant featuring historic design elements from the time. The pennant, with "THE CORNELL UNIVERSITY 1865" and "EZRA CORNELL FOUNDED A.D. 1865," offers a rare glance into campus culture and identity from over a century ago.
Cornell University shared an image of the pennant with a call for alumni and history enthusiasts to identify any forgotten details tied to this piece of Cornelliana. In the post, the university also invited individuals to share their own historical memorabilia for a chance to be featured in an upcoming showcase.
Cornell University, established in 1865 by founder Ezra Cornell, has long been a hub for education and history. This discovery adds a tangible connection to the university's storied legacy and invites further engagement with its historical past.
If you're a collector of Cornell history or have unique items tied to the institution's legacy, the university encourages you to share your treasures for potential inclusion in future features.
