What in the world are these?

I bought a large collection this week. In this collection were a couple of items that I can't identify.

OK, here is the first item.

These are felt patches. I looked in the SCD catelog and found 1958 Bazooka "My Favorite Team" Patches. In the description it says that they are 3" in diameter. These that I have are 6" in diameter. Are they old? They have "old style" logos. Also, notice that some have "My Favorite Team" and "Bazooka Blony" and some do not. I have 16 of these patches. Does anybody know what these are? Here is a sample.

Now, the second item.

These two cards are "post card" sized and have a blank back. What are these?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I think they are 1956 big league emblems. Text
    uf you have san fran or los ang dogdgers then they are the 58 issue.

    the web page has a list of all supplements..............1956 big league emblems seems to be them.

    the 2 postcards appear to be from 1959...or 60
    Good for you.
  • found a hit on google but not sure if the seller knows exactly what those team patches are:

    The Post Cards appear to be Exibit cards released from 1947 to 1966 usually sold out of vending machines.The company I believe was
    out of Chicago.

    Winpitcher,

    That website says that they are 5". I thought mine were 6". I actually got a tape measure out, and mine are exactly 5". Now, the SCD catelog says that the 1958 Bazooka Team Patches are "approximately 3". Also, the SCD pictures a Dodgers patch (emblem) at the top of the listing. It is a little different than mine. Mine show a player batting with the words "Los Angeles Dodgers. The one pictured in SCD shows a ball flying through the air with the same words.

    The reason that I am really badly wanting some information on these is that the SCD shows a book value of $450 for the set. According to their listing, I am only missing the Boston Red Sox to complete the set.

    By the way, mine do say "Los Angeles" and San Fransisco."


    Donnnster,

    I saw the same web page. That even confuses me even more because the Cubs emblem on that site doesn't exactly match mine either.

    Yep, I found them in the SCD. The Robinson books for $17.50. But since it has a pin hole, maybe a quarter! Oh well, at least I know what they are now. Now, if we could just figure out these emblems or patches or whatever they are called.

    Those round things look coasters that you might find in sports bar. Are you sure they're patches?

    I am not sure what they are. I just know they are round and made of some sort of felt material. I need some more information if anybody has any. I have searched the internet, and can't find much info. Even the guy at the above website needed more info.

    The first thing I thought when I saw them was coasters ! I guess that only reaffirms my fiance saying I have spent way too much time in bars over the years.
