Description

ARTIFACT:

This is a very rare early 1950's shoulder patch for the United States Army 23rd Armored. The 23 is printed rather than embroidered and the patch comes with a separate "Phantom Knights" tab.


Nothing is known about this patch, and it is the only pair I have heard of or seen. 

VINTAGE:

Circa early 1950's.

SIZE:

Patch: approximately 3-1/2" in height x 3-7/8" in width; Tab: approximately 11/16" in height x 3-7/8" in length.

CONSTRUCTION / MATERIALS:

Fully embroidered in cotton/silk threads with printed number.

ATTACHMENT:

To be sewn onto uniform.

MARKINGS:

None.

ITEM NOTES:

This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VEJX11 LIJJX12/11 HDN10/12 SLABGEX10/19/22 SBJJX07/24

CONDITION:

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The patch is in very nice condition with only some light wear at the edges. Tab is also in very nice condition, but does appear to have been sewn onto a uniform at one time. 

GUARANTEE:

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