I found all these old patches tied up in a plastic bag in a storage facility. I went there to look for old pictures but found these. I made a slideshow of them. Some are fantastically done with intricate stitching while others are cheap and boring. But, they make for interesting conversation. These patches were typically exchanged by youth soccer players during tournament play in the 70's and 80's. I have no idea if the tradition continues, but as you'll see they come from all over. Enjoy.
