March 1945 insignia catalog

Thought this was interesting. They were promoting patch collecting even before the War had ended. And they even offered German breast eagles?

I'll take the 50 patches for $5. LOL. What a deal! That's cool, thanks for posting. Patches were definitely a surplus. Dallas Texas address too. I can drive over and pick them up. I might spend $10.

I've seen a number of similar sales catalogues to include the 'famed' patch king and some other's have German militaria,

BUT I've never seen this one or that eagle! Thanks for posting. Anybody have one of the eagles they can post?

Gotta love the internet, you won't find any patches but you could end up looking good!

I haven't seen that one! Nice! Yeah, patch collecting was at its height in the late 1940's and 1950's as there were several vendors for the patches including the Patch King and the Insignia Guild. You can see more of those companies in this thread that features a Patch King album that was sold with and without the patches.

I have the same one, only the second one I've ever seen.
