I recently purchased this Philadelphia Warriors logo patch that was used on their game used warm-up jackets in the late 50s. It has never been used and appears to be dead stock (maybe from Pearson). The recent replica made by Mitchell&Ness is slightly different and this example is original. Heavyweight felt with chain-stitched detail, right down to the teeth. Measures 14x9 inches and the photo is posted in actual size.

REALLY sweet piece! Love the Blue background (or trim), it makes the rest of the Logo/Colors really stand out!

Very nice and NOT very PC (a plus in my book).

Great piece. Love the old Warriors. Played in a pickup game once against an aging Neil Johnston -- 3x NBA scoring champ. I think he wanted to eat my lunch and he had no problem doing it. Best player by far I ever played against though not much competition in this regard. RIP Neil, who is probably shooting hook shots in heaven.
