I invite you to bid on this obsolete, beautiful, new, uncirculated, Pennsylvania Game Commission , DEPUTY GAME PROTECTOR UNIFORM PATCH .

The patch is one of twenty position patches that were worn by officers and employees of the Pennsylvania Game Commission.

The Pennsylvania Game Commission is the wildlife management agency in the State of Pennsylvania.

These patches were worn on official agency uniforms from 1965 until 1979.

At that time, the agency abandoned the policy of having employees wear position specific patches on their uniforms and went to a standard patch for all uniformed employees that read Pennsylvania Game Commission, Established 1895.

The 20 position patches are now sought after by collectors of Pennsylvania Game Commission items and artifacts.

A Deputy Game Protector would have worn this specific patch.

These employees were issued uniforms and paid per diem expenses but were not full time employees of the agency. They were considered part time employees who for the most part volunteered their time to assist and work with and under the direction of, the full time employee, the District Game Protector.

These patches do not appear that much on Internet auction sites, as the originals are only available second market from a collector. These patches were never sold to the public by the agency.

The patch is guaranteed to be an original and not duplication.

This very sought after patch features an uncut Keystone Shape Border of gold with a black twill material background. In the center of the Patch is the State of Pennsylvania Coat of Arms. Surrounding the coat of arms is a gold border containing the words “ Deputy Game Protector ” in blue lettering. Outside and above this lettering is the word “ Pennsylvania ” with “ Game Commission ” below the border. All this lettering is in gold. The patch measures 4” by 4 ½” has never been sewn on any garment and is in mint condition as can be seen in the photograph. The backing on the patch is the old style gauze type, which farther indicates the age of the patch. This type of backing was typical of uniform patches made in that era.

If you collect Pennsylvania Game Commission items and artifacts, and do not collect these items, this is a great patch to start out with.

Recently the agency adopted a completely new uniform patch and these patches are sure to increase in value with time. Now is a great time to get in at the ground floor and start your collection today!!!!!
