Up for consideration is an original vintage old stock JANTZEN SWIMMING LADY FABRIC PATCH c1930s. Embroidered patch with pinup girl in jackknife position. BREIF HISTORY: We acquired these patches from a long time employee of JANTZEN over 30 years ago. The intention for this particular logo was to design a swimsuit made for 1936 Olympic Diving Team that consisted of 2 Men and 2 Women. This suit was to have this \"One of a Kind\" Jantzen patch applied to the suits that matched the 1936 Olympic Logo for diving. Endorsements by celebrities began with 1924 Olympic Games champions Johnny Weismuller and Duke Kahanamoku of Hawaii as fashion became increasingly important. They ended up scrapping the idea as to not conflict with the red Diving Girl icon that had become an international symbol for Jantzen. Unused old stock never used or circulated, about 2\" inches tall. Excellent condition. family has owned and operated an Antique Advertising and Vintage Collectible business for over 50 years.
