Help with Naval Architecture Patch

Here is a recent patch acquisition of mine, but I am not sure when this one dates from. It is not like the others that I have seen, which leads me to believe that it is an older one.

 

In this scarce or desirable?

Hello, Looks like a 40's or 50's made patch. The school was located in the Bronx, the site is the current home of the Bronx VA hospital of "Born on the 4th of July" infamy. The school still exists on Long Island I believe. I'd say $5-$10 unless someone absolutely has to have it. By the way the school has no official military affiliation.

Patriot, Looked it up a little further. The school during WW2 was used to train naval officers. I'd say patch is post WW2 though and probably dates to when the school relocated to Glen Cove, Long Island in 1947.
