gwb123 Posted April 3, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 3, 2019 I recently referred our members to a thread I wrote about reproduction Vietnam era 101st ABN patches. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/279943-angry-birds-a-selection-of-questionable-vietnam-era-101st-patches/ One of our members asked if I had any original patches I could show for comparison. So if anyone has one they would like to share, please feel free to add it here. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Scott Posted June 20, 2019 Share #17 Posted June 20, 2019 One of the Rarest of all the interwar 101st patches I think the last one I sold went for 800 or 900 dollars..It is one used when the 101st was Headquartered in Wisconsin great patch.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digi-shots Posted June 21, 2019 Share #18 Posted June 21, 2019 Wow! Thanks Scotty! I didn’t know that.. all along I thought it was a newly made rendition of a 101st patch or a Vietnam type with chain stitching. I never gave it a second thought. In looking at it now, I should have realized it was something else... nice wool felt, black cheesecloth backing, no glue, no glow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
