What's remarkable to me about this comic book advert of embroidered patches is how eclectic they are. There are recycling symbols, Black Power patches, Confederate flags, a Bicentennial logo, cartoon characters, automotive logos, peace signs, happy faces,ecology symbols, various rock group emblems, various counter-culture symbols, vapid slogans — there's no theme, just a dump of anything someone thought might sell to the audience.
It was a simpler time in the 70s.
Dynamite embroidered cloth patches that tell it like it is
Artist Mitch O’Connell has posted his astonishingly large collection of 1970s embroidered patches. I hope somebody starts making them again!
