Restoration to any collectible should be left to the expert that has experience with that type of work. Depending on how bad it is it might be better off left alone, or if it is just a little dusty you might carefully take a dust buster to it.

I have heard of collectors taking pennants to the dry cleaner but I would still be cautious on using a dry cleaner that I could trust, and talk to.
