Hello!  Here is an original, vintage, 1965 Water Ski world championships patch.  The patch is in great condition- see pics.  It was removed from a jacket that was stored in a cool, dry, smoke free place. This was the 9th water ski championship. It was held at Surfers Paradise Ski Gardens in Australia.  The US took 7 of the top 8 prize positions.  It will be sent ground advantage.  Thanks for looking!
