SIZE: Approximately 2-7/8" diameter.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: White felt patch embroidered in blue and red cotton/silk threads, mesh backing.

ATTACHMENT: None.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a societies and organizations collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. ebay LCHX10/12

CONDITION: 6 (Fine+): The patch shows moderate wear and discoloration.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
