{"product_id":"vintage-stowe-vermont-snowflake-embroidered-patch-1","title":"Stowe Vermont Snowflake Patch (Black Ground) — c. 1970s-80s","description":"\u003cp\u003eA vintage Stowe ski patch, probably late 1970s or early 80s, round on a black ground inside a white merrowed border — a six-arm blue snowflake with a small white hexagon at its center, STOWE arched in white across the top and Vermont around the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlack grounds arrived late in the patch business and they changed how everything sitting on top of them read — colors came up sharper, white went properly white instead of faintly cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey have also aged far better than anything else from the period. Set this next to a pale twill patch of the same year and the pale one will have gone the color of weak tea, while this looks about four seasons old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also one of the few patches here you could put on a modern jacket without it looking like a costume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEmbroidered on twill, merrowed edge.
