Contact the Boy Scouts.  They collect old US flags and dispose of them properly.

You can just use windex or even water and tissue or a damp cloth.\n\nIts okay, you wont damage it.

Take it to a sports and memorabilia appraiser.  If there's an auction house near you, they should have one.

For one, I would have the shirt framed to ensure it doesn't get ruined in any way.  To get it authenticated, you could go to a sports memoribilia store.  BUT, do your research and find out about the dealer there.  You only want a respectable person who KNOWS what he/she is talking about.  After that, get multiple quotes.  It will help in giving you an average rather than one set price.  Realize that stores in different areas will value things differently.  You could also try to go through PSA.com, which is the leading source of getting things authenticated.  While I don't know the prices they charge for such a process, they are perhaps the best to speak to.\n\nPiece of advice:  DON'T go to eBay for prices.  Prices there are for what people are paying at the highest and not a reflection of actual values.  With alot of inflation there due to fraudulent users, prices go out of control on a daily basis.\n\nHave fun and remember one thing.  Don't be discouraged if you get a low value.  You still have a nice piece of baseball history.

When the flag has become tattered and torn the proper and respectful way to dispose of it is to burn it.

Return them to nature, bury, burn or make them an offering to a river or the sea. \nPeople buy old religious prints and statues on eBay but you can't know how they'll be treated or what they might be used for, if you don't really care about this you could make some extra dollars.

From what I have seen; The American Flag if you are American should be flown as you are facing it on the Left of all other flags. I have also heard that the American flag should be flown higher than flags of other countries. Again only in America. The flag should also be clean and not worn out. Worn out American flags should be burned, if you take a worn US Flag to any US Post office they should take it from you and have it destroyed properly.\n\nI do not have any references and this information just comes from what I have seen and heard.

1. I know certain countries have their own ways of folding the national flag, but I could not find any details online of an Irish method.  \n\n2. Here are the methods that I did manage to find\n(a) USA - this is quite an intricate method, and there are many webpages devoted to it (the third and fourth webpages listed here include the symbolism of each fold).\nhttp://www.legion.org/?section=our_flag&subsection=flag_folding&content=flag_procedures\nhttp://www.usa-patriotism.com/reference/flag_folding.htm\nhttp://www.flagandbanner.com/fab/flag.asp?cpage=folding1&source=overture\nhttp://www.usflag.org/foldflag.html\n\n(b) UK - the British tradition is to have the flag rolled up and then tied with a thin piece of cotton or a slip not. When the rolled flag is raised to the top of the mast, a sharp tug of the halyard releases the flag to fly freely.\nhttp://www.leicester.gov.uk/naco/Home%20Page%20Pics/NACO%20Flag%20Protocol.pdf\nhttp://www.scoutbase.org.uk/library/hqdocs/facts/pdfs/fs315073.pdf\n\n3. You may wish to browse around these websites, for some further leads.\n(a) Flags of the World - it has a Republic of Ireland webpage\nhttp://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/ie.html#his\n(b) Vexillological Society of Ireland - now defunct, apparently\nhttp://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/vex-cve.html\nhttp://www.fotw.net/flags/vex_reg.html\n(c) The Flag Institute (UK)\nhttp://www.flaginstitute.org/index.php?location=0\n(d) International Federation of Vexillological Associations\nhttp://www.fotw.net/flags/vex-fiav.html#officers

Check out completed auctions on eBay.  If it is very valuable you may want to go with a traditional auction house.  Otherwise selling it on eBay or to an antiques dealer is probably a good idea.
