Decal applied to leatherette.

Not sure what that would have been worn on, but it's the insignia from the First Marine Aviation Force in WWI. They had a very active reunion association in the 1940s that I know made car decals and such, so my guess (based on jweitkamp's response) is that someone put a decal on leatherette for a reunion or reunion type activity. 

 

I could be wrong, but I can't imagine what this patch would have been worn on, or why it would be decal on leatherette if it were otherwise. Just my thoughts. Neat patch!

I think the reunion piece theory is a good one. I’ve never seen another like it.
