Wake1941 Posted May 12, 2019 #1 Posted May 12, 2019 This is an oddball a friend of mine has had for a while, almost looks japanese made. Anyone ever see one like this
lamarhooten Posted May 15, 2019 #4 Posted May 15, 2019 It seems like it might be a british one or some country other than USA.
Wake1941 Posted May 15, 2019 Author #5 Posted May 15, 2019 Good possibility, the color reminded me of some of the FE Japanese made GHQ patches I've seen
vintageproductions Posted May 15, 2019 #6 Posted May 15, 2019 It's Japanese made and was made for collectors only
Wake1941 Posted May 15, 2019 Author #7 Posted May 15, 2019 Thanks I thought there might be a possibility this was made for collectors
ragpic1 Posted May 15, 2019 #8 Posted May 15, 2019 This patch was made by either Jim Maxwell or Harry McAllister while they were stationed in Japan late 1950's-early 1960's. It was made for collectors. I received one back than as a kid.

vzemke Posted May 16, 2019 #10 Posted May 16, 2019 They made a TON of different designs and sold them to collectors, often through ASMIC connections.
