This is a vintage felt patch from the Little League (Junior League) used in the United States from the 1940s to the 1950s. In the center, the words "Junior Leaguer" are embroidered along with a bat and ball, symbols of baseball. This patch is from the golden age of the 1940s-1950s, when the "Little League" established in Pennsylvania, USA in 1939, began to spread throughout the United States. It is a historical item that boys at the time sewed onto the shoulders of their uniforms or the sleeves of their team jackets to show their pride in belonging to a local league. Unlike modern iron-on types, it features warm chain stitch-style embroidery on felt. The vintage-specific felt texture and the aging give it a unique feel, making it a very atmospheric piece for remaking old clothes like stadium jackets and bags, or for collecting. #1950s #vintage #LittleLeague #youthbaseball #baseball #baseballpatch #feltpatch #Americanvintage #vintageclothingremake #retro #40s #50s #collectorsitem #USAgoods #embroideredpatch #antique #military #Americancasual #stadiumjacket
