Thanks in advance to anyone that takes time to read the post and help me to identify patches.
Just a little background on me. I started my relationship with trucks on June 19, 1972 as I drove into the parking lot of International Harvester’s Truck Assembly operations in Fort Wayne, Indiana. That series of buildings produced the Transtar, Fleetstar, Paystar and Scout vehicles, as well many of the axles and transmissions that went into the medium and heavy duty trucks. As I walked through the factory I saw many of the colors of fleets that International was building trucks for and wondered how I could connect to that customer. Later that year I began to write letters and talk to people to see if I could get a uniform patch from that company. Now some 38 years later I am still doing my best to find those patches and have over 1,900 in my exhibit.
This exhibit has been shown over the last few years to well over 25,000 people at more than 15 events and I add more shows/events each year. I also show it at individual club meeting in the area so if your group would like me to be at one of your meetings talk with me and let’s see if we can work it out.
I have been asked to show my exhibit at the 2011 ATHS National Show in South Bend, so for that I am interested in adding more to this exhibit. If you have some that you would like have added to my exhibit contact me at
[email protected]. If you know people that have patches that I could add to the exhibit also contact me. I am always interested in buying or trading patches
