Listen Later

Hey everyone, on this weeks episode Im going to talk about Patches, and why do we collect these decorative items?
Patch Collecting:
- Badges have been collected since ancient times. Greek and Roman pilgrims to pagan shrines made collections of miniature images of gods and goddesses or their emblems, and Christian pilgrims later did the same.
- After the Second World War, American GIs occupying Germany sent badges back to their loved ones, showing where they were stationed. These badges became known as sweetheart patches.
Do you collect patches? I would love to hear how many do you have collected?
I wonder who has the most..
