Quartz logo patch

CardboardcityWed, 09/03/2022 - 20:06

Vintage embroidered Quartz patch with the logo rendered in black and white onto a red background. This is the same patch that was advertised in the merchandise form included with the Stand Up and fight album, but this specific copy was bought at a 1980 show played in England. Not the most visually complicated patch but the three colours together and weaving around the logo work fantastically well visually. Also, I hadn't even seen a colour photo of this patch before I was fortunate enough to acquire this copy - a real NWOBHM rarity!

Haha thanks for the 11 flames (generous emoji arithmetic) for this relic of a hard rocking past mate! 🔥

NOW this is some proper gem, congrats on finding it! The two of us combined now own 2 of the relics advertised on the SUAF insert / https://tshirtslayer.com/pin-badge/quartz-stand-and-fight-logo-original-... - we just need to lay our hands on the shirts. ;)

Thank you mate, this was a fortuitous find for certain! That pin is a stunner too, a testament to a simple but very effective logo. I think we'd both be delighted to score a shirt, perhaps we'll find one and share ownership haha...

Nice find! This is the first time I’ve seen this patch.

Thank you mate, I wasn't expecting to find one because I only knew it from the merch sheet and had never seen one either! It's a great looking patch though, and I know it was a lucky find.
