GoldenCross Posted June 4, 2016 Share #1 Posted June 4, 2016 I acquired these a few years ago, but never looked into their history. I don't know much of anything about the realm of patches. Can anyone tell me if these are original or repro? Also, what era if possible? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Scott Posted June 4, 2016 Share #5 Posted June 4, 2016 The two that you show are as Ski said reproductions.They are made with modern synthetic thread and give the backs on yours a shiny plastic look.The backs on originals look more closely like the three I have scanned.Keep asking questions that is how we all learn.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
