I still have a couple of patches left. Looking back I probably shouldn't have sold the ones that I did sell:

Thanks Tom... If I hadn't sold so many patches, I would have had easily 4 times the number I have now and each was different.... I get bored too easily at times... LOL

...I know I have left out a few, and the Bear Alinement patch is shown in several photos (I was trying to find the other one I had, so I left it out), but here's a bunch of them...these are just the gas/oil/tba/auto-related...got a bunch of other advertising patches...

I found this old thread and figured I’d add to it. I’ve been collecting patches for about a year and 1/2 now and this is most of my collection!

Nice collection, Mark. Glad you brought up this old thread.
Here's a display of my Buick dealer and body shop patches that I framed last winter. Many of the patches were from my uniforms or issued to me to wear over the years. Some are older than me. wink

Pakymn, you could open a patch museum with the collection you have!!! Those Sunray Patches are my favorite, I have never seen them and I look for patches all of the time. Very nice.

I don't collect them, but I recently stumbled upon these on eBay for the St. Paul, Minnesota based Oskey Brothers Petroleum Corporation's North Star stations. I have an uncle who worked at one of these full service stations in the 1960s. I'm sure these patches or something like it was part of his uniform.

Oskey Brothers was acquired by Northwestern Refining Company of St. Paul Park in the 1950's. Northwestern retailed gasoline through SuperAmerica, Laurie Gas, Trax Oil, North Star and Webb stations when in operation.

Norhtwestern was acquired by Ashland Oil in 1970. Ashland eventually changed the stations to SuperAmerica or sold them off.

I worked at the old Northwestern refinery and came across some of these patches there.

Thanks for this. This is all very helpful. I didn't know Northwestern acuqired Oskey Bros so early, though I should have known it smile

Added several NOS patches to the collection. I had never seen the Gray Blue and White Sterling patch and would be curious to hear if anyone had any info on that! My favorites of this group are the MARS, Sterling, Jenney Aero and the Autolite patches.

I'm not a patch collector per se, but do buy Mobil, Marathon and a couple other brands for my brand collections when I see them. I just got this one and thought it was pretty unique as I've not seen one before. I know Mobil had their own press guys that put together the company magazines in the different regions around the country. I assume they sported these patches on their uniforms.

I collected stickers (decals) and patches in the early 70's. Here's a few.
