ARTIFACT: I was just able to reacquire this extremely piece and have it back in inventory! This is an extremely rare circa 1930s officer shoulder patch for the United States Army 45th Infantry Division Š the only one I've seen! Originally a part of the Oklahoma Army National Guard, the 45th (also known as "Thunderbird) entered the war in 1941. This handsome old red velvet patch shows a golden bullion swastika at center. It was recently found at an old antiques dealer in Arizona.

VINTAGE: Circa 1930s.

SIZE: Approximately 3-1/4" in height and 3-1/8" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Velvet embroidered in gold bullion threads, partial mesh backing.

ATTACHMENT: None.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. MDJJX13 LHIEX1/13 SLHIEX4/13 SHJJX3/14

CONDITION: 7- (Very Fine-): The patch has some small spots of light wear, with a moderate tarnish and minor oxidation to the bullion.

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