Unknown patch sells for over $1100

[mortaydc60]

This is something that you don't see everyday; a patch with no ID sells on Ebay for over $1100. To be fair there were some hints and anyone who had some experience could tell this was a theater made silk patch and had some value. Most guessed i assume that it was WW2 Chinese KMT bomber unit. Did some checking and from what i found it is unknown as to exact ID but has been seen before. Here are pics for your information and reference material.

Thanks Steve for the information,and note that  the American version does not have the black bomb and number on the patch just so the viewing audinece knows.  Thank Rick for coming up with ID and additional information, the site I found was mostly a suggestion on ID.
