A WW2 era Mission to Moscow patch

[Patchcollector]

Hi all,
A recent find is this Mission to Moscow patch.It has the thin lettering and the proper Eagle design so I believe that this is a WW2 era piece.From what I've read the ones with the thicker lettering and border were made for collectors.It is in great condition and would be tough to upgrade this one.
I have been looking for the WW2 version for awhile and was happy to find it for just under 20 bucks which I felt was very reasonable.

Awesome patch!  Not a patch collector per se but since I collect 4th Fighter Group items and they participated in the Russia Shuttle missions, I too have been on the hunt for one of these.  Great score and congrats!

Thanks Paul.I'll keep an eye out and if I see another one come up for sale I'll let you know.The 4th is an interesting unit that had many Eagle Squadron Fliers.I'm learning more about the Eagle Squadrons and I find them fascinating.
