All six are made with multicolored embroidery on cloth or felt backing, and five out of six are round. The grouping includes the 700th Bomb Squadron of the 445th Bomb Group (a white pegasus riding on a blue bomb, with a cloud in the background and a cloud-shaped backing), 367th Bomb Squadron (screaming red skull wearing a flight helmet on a yellow background), 456th Bomb Squadron of the 323rd Bomb Group (three dice showing the numbers of the Squadron on a four-leaf clover), 701st Bomb Squadron of the 445th Bomb Group (an eagle in an Air Corps uniform riding a shark-toothed four-engine bomber), 603rd Bomb Squadron of the 398th Bomb Group (the Disney cartoon character Pete wearing aviator clothing), and the 423rd Bomb Squadron of the 306th Bomb Group (a red-cloaked grim reaper leaving a trail of fire behind a burning scythe). Provenance: The Putnam Green/Sycamore Collection

Very good, with minor stains on the 367th red skull patch and light handling marks and wear overall.
