Zwackery Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Anybody ever seen this one? One showed up on eBay 13 Feb 2015 and went for $9.98. I didn't notice that one, but saw a second one, which sold on 23 Feb 2015 for $89.08. I searched for sold auctions and that led me to the first. I asked both sellers (the first in Las Vegas, the second in Baker, CA) about them, and Vegas said it was acquired in a box of stuff from a garage sale, while Baker said it came in a collection purchased from another person. I can't tell if it's the same patch being sold twice, or 2 different patches of the same make. Anyhow, being that I really like Activision patches, I'm very curious about this one.

CPUWIZ Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The graphics look extremely modern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 The second seller was really nice, answered all my questions, and sent along additional photos. The stitching looks accurate for an Activision patch, and it had the white backing, although the usual notice about application was not present, but those do fall off as the glue dries. The image looks like it's from the INTV version. If it was done 3rd party, it had at least some effort made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevEng Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Looks like the Intellivision version box art... [edit - you beat me to it ] I see other patches with same image on google images, but they all appear to be triangular... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 If modern, I would suspect sublimation dying with a merrowed edge added. It's not hard to do if that is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
