2001 MLB Flag Patches

[ChasHawk]

Good morning everyone.

This question may be viewed as a bit morbid or in bad taste. If it is, let me know and I'll take it down.

This is really just honest curiosity on my part. Because I've been watching WAY TOO MUCH MLB Network the last couple weeks, this question popped into my head last night.

Have there ever been any cards made with the US Flag patches from the back of the uniforms worn at the end of the 2001 season? I think this is something that could be really cool and patriotic if done tastefully. Or maybe the subject matter was just avoided altogether?

Anybody have any info / scans / thoughts ?

Ask and you shall receive. I don't think I've ever had an original idea in my entire life :lol: :lol:

Exact one I thought of as I opened this thread.

Pinbreaker also has the Shawn Green. Those are the only two that I can recall ever seeing, and they are sick!!

Didn't somebody just get a flag patch card signed at Twinsfest this past weekend? I seem to recall one in that thread - maybe not from the same set though.

I pulled and sold the Roger Clemens flag patch shortly after release. Sold "offline" to an ebay buyer in Hawaii who was a middleman selling it to a man in Asia. I was a HOF collector then as well, and this was before Clemens steroid troubles. The money paid for a trip to disney for the family. To date my biggest sale. I used to have a scan but the computer crashed w/ the pics...
