JCFalkenbergIII Posted May 21, 2010 Share #8 Posted May 21, 2010 Zip codes began in 1963. It looks similar to the ones I used back in the 70s IIRC. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US82Bravo Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share #9 Posted May 22, 2010 Thanks for the comments. My best information indicates that this was received between 1968 and 1970. Here are a couple of more scans from the items listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCFalkenbergIII Posted May 22, 2010 Share #15 Posted May 22, 2010 I'm bummed now that I hadn't started collecting and buying from The Patch King earlier in my life . Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted May 22, 2010 Share #16 Posted May 22, 2010 That's obviously why so many collectors' patches have a small spot of glue residue/paper on their reverse sides...they've been removed from Patch King albums! Sabrejet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I kept their catalogs, though. -Ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
