Another Quiz – Do you know PGIT?
We certainly try to have fun with patches. Another person that brought fun to the hobby was Pappy Reinegar and the Texas Trader’s Den.
I don’t remember who all was in here but certainly Bill Price (of the pocket illustrated OA patch book fame), John Bibo, Robert Frizzell, Steve Ross and many more.
We came a cross a couple of their flaps from the 1970s one of which is this week’s quiz. Do you know what PGIT means?
One eBay seller, from Texas, even uses this as his handle. Doctoral question: Why were the feather drops made the way they were?

PGIT == Patch god in training

Don’t know about the drops… my guess is so you could cut off the “IT” when you were done with your training and had become a “patch god”.

John – you’ve got it exactly right on both counts. Obviously your patch has had the ‘IT’ removed.
