RS95B Posted February 14, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 14, 2020 This came with a group of patches that I picked up the other day. Can anyone tell what era this is from, and where it was made? I have never seen that burlap type backing on another patch. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamarhooten Posted February 14, 2020 Share #3 Posted February 14, 2020 Is the material on the back made from the same type used in burlap sacks or is it just the same weave? I have seen british made ones with a very coarse weave backing material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS95B Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted February 15, 2020 I do not think it is actual burlap. It does have the same weave, but is not as stiff to the touch. Almost feels like a real course cotton, or wool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted February 15, 2020 Share #5 Posted February 15, 2020 I would suggest North Africa, WW 2. I have seen a few patches made there and they tend to be on the crude side. The designs are there, just somewhat crudely made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
