This lot includes an ORIGINAL 303rd Bombardment Group, Hell’s Angels jacket patch. The item measures 5 3/8 from top to bottom. As you can see above, it’s heavily stained. The smaller 8th AF patch measures 2 1/2 in diameter and appears to have been made in England. These patches came to me with the pictures you see in the last 3 images above. They are not period prints but appear to have been printed off scans of the originals. The B-17’s serial number is visible: 337729. With that it should be possible to get a crew list. The original owner’s name is partially visible on the back of the Hell’s Angels patch. There’s enough of his name visible to match against a crew list. A great research opportunity! I guarantee the authenticity of every item I sell. Please check out my other listings for similar offerings. Thanks for looking and good luck.
