WW-ll shoulder patch issued to news boysgreenspun.com : LUSENET : The Exchange: A Forum for Antiques and The Arts : One Thread |
During WW-ll, news boys sold U.S. saving stamps to customers along their paper route. Based upon the amount of saving stamps sold, shoulder patches were awarded.These patches measure approx. 4" in diam. The center of the patch depicts a water weasel. Around the circumference of the patch is printed: "*** U.S. WAR STAMP AGENT *** WATER WEASEL" I'm interested in determining their value.
