Back Badges Anyone?

I still have my first , 'back patch', I974. Green background with black letters. Did not show up to well when put into the plastic it came with.

No need to tear your jacket or such, vests were made with sewn in clear flexible plastic holders on the back that held your license, they were very durable are were the proper hunter orange colour.

Pelee island pheasant hunt requires that you wear a smaller version to prove you are licensed at a glance. Not a big deal. I remember as a little kid having my Dad's expired one pinned to my back when I tagged along in the fields at Hullett PWA. made me feel like one of the "men".

Interesting nostalgic topic but seeing as our boys/girls at Queens Park won't even give you a little wallet size piece of plastic coated paper I don't see them issuing back badges. I hope the Feds never do away with duck stamps.
