{"product_id":"saddleback-maine-embroidered-fabric-patch","title":"Saddleback Maine Patch (Ridgeline) — modern","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Saddleback Maine patch, arched-top with a white merrowed border and a blue frame — a green ridgeline band with the saddle shape cut white through it, SADDLEBACK in blue block caps and MAINE beneath. This is the mark the mountain carried into its reopening, and the stitching is modern: dense, digitized, sharp at every edge. It is in the collection to complete the Saddleback run, not because it is old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRangeley Lakes, in the western Maine mountains, about as far from a city as organized skiing gets in the Northeast. The Appalachian Trail runs over Saddleback's ridge, which gives you some idea of the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemoteness was the whole proposition. You did not end up here on the way to anywhere. You came because somebody told you it was worth four hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFour hours from Boston, in a direction most people never drive, on roads that are not improved by February. The mountain's whole history is a consequence of that number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEmbroidered on twill, merrowed edge. Modern production, reopening era. Photos are the condition report.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ropetow Vintage Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55537898881329,"sku":"RV-ME-087","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/2048\/7473\/files\/ropetow-vintage-co-saddleback-maine-patch.jpg?v=1785622256","url":"https:\/\/ropetowvintage.com\/products\/saddleback-maine-embroidered-fabric-patch","provider":"Ropetow Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
