You are offerding on or purchasing:A VINTAGE EMROIDERED TRAVEL SOUVENIR BADGE PATCH, SILK 1960s NEVER USED SEW ON PATCH: MID-CENTURY RARE! KON-TIKI OSLO NORWAY THOR HEYERDAHL RAFT.

Offered as acquired from estate household: this is a vintage travel souvenir sew-on patch for placement on shirts, jackets, shorts, kit-bags, backpacks, luggage or otherwise. No date on patch, but this was part of a larger collection of travel memorabilia that contained materials and correspondence dated 1964-75, so that\'s a safe guess at the age of this item.

GORGEOUS sew-on KON-TIKI souvenir patch features a classic mid-century style and is marked Oslo - Norway. Kon-Tiki was the raft used by Norwegian explorer and writer Thor Heyerdahl in his 1947 expedition across the Pacific Ocean from South America to the Polynesian islands. Obviously, this is a fairly uncommon piece: I\'m guessing the chance of finding another of this age and condition is ZERO. Older style patch is soft cloth with embroidered silk decoration, possibly 1950s. Clean, never used, no package, minor fraying at one edge is minimal concern. Measures about 2\" x 3 3/4\" and is fully embroidered in four colors silk on white cloth badge. Never been stitched or worn, as NEW condition. Can be stitched to clothing, backpacks or luggage for that classic world traveler style!

This is a SUPER addition for the travel souvenir collector or the regional curator; perfect relic from the age of hitchiking across the continent, so have at it! Soda cans, dollar coins and other objects seen in photos are for size reference only; you\'ll have to get your own magical sprite spokesmodel.
