Vintage woven Accept patch with the iconic lionβs head artwork for their sophomore album Iβm a Rebel. This is the less common red border version but otherwise the patch is identical to the black border. Despite being a fairly small patch the artwork comes across really well with the warm background colour offering a base for contrast on the shining sword hilt and blade. The black space around the main design further accentuates the use of colour and impact of the glitter while also doing wonders for the earlier period logo of the time. Soft hessian cloth backing typical of late 70s and very early 80s patches on this one.

This is my favorite and most wanted patch of all time, full flames!

Thank you for the flames man, and it's a real beauty especially with the red border version!

What an incredibly lovely piece mate! It are these kind of patches that make me super excited about vintage patches and making jackets π€ Congrats on scoring this absolute stunner βπ₯π€ππ€π₯β
Is there any glitter incorporated in this beauty? You know how much I love glitter, so go ahead and make me crazy ππ

Thank you man, it's a really good looking patch! I totally agree, it's scores like this that make the chase worthwhile π€ Haha in that case, listen up! The sword and logo are done in smooth silver glitter (not the chunkier kind) and they shine in the light π My phone didn't do a great job of capturing that though π

You just made me go wild baby! ππ I never knew this patch was out there, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it on my wanted list very soon π A Wonderful Piece π€ππ€

Haha, it's worth going wild over if you ask me π To be fair, the black border version is already an uncommon patch so this red border turns up once in a blue moon π It's a killer though, and is a worthy addition to your wanted list and hopefully your jacket before too long! π€π₯π€

One of my most wanted pieces and the hardest to find out of all Accept patches, black or red border. Congratulations on finding it!

Thank you, I think it is my favourite of the Accept patches too because it's so well designed and executed. It's definitely tough to find and I'm fortunate to have both of the border colours. Let's hope that you are able to find one too!
