Hi all, hope this is the right forum to post this but I am looking for a patch or patches of the R56 MINI. I've looked everywhere and while I can find some of the original Mini, nothing for the new MINI (R53 or R56). I was watching LeMans (Steve McQueen ) a while back and got the bug to create an homage to those cool satin racing jackets everyone is seen wearing back then with all the sponsors names and such. Just thought it would be cool to make something to wear for any Fall/Winter MINI GTGs. But the one type of patch I really want on the jacket, I just cannot find. Anyone have any leads?

 

Anyone? Anyone?... the Great Depression, passed the... Anyone? Anyone? The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered?... raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression. Today we have a similar debate over this. Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone seen this before? The Laffer Curve. Anyone know what this says? It says that at this point on the revenue curve, you will get exactly the same amount of revenue as at this point. This is very controversial. Does anyone know what Vice President Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. "Voodoo" economics.

Anyone? Anyone?

 

Go to EBAY and type in MINI COOPER PATCHES...see what you get....I got 98 hits!

 

Yeah, I've gone that route. The closest that I see that is what I am looking for are these two. The first is a R-56 but I want it just plain, no race car graphics...



This is one of the type I want only it is an early Mini Cooper.



This would be ideal but again, I want one of an R-56. I may just have to go and have some made on my own dime unless someone knows differently.

 

Well, since I couldn't find any R56 patches, I had some made. Thought I'd at least share how they turned out before I mail them off to my buddies.

they have embroidery on many different garments

you might have to settle for GEN1, but as small as you're talking it won't show much

(you can pick the car color)

straying from a 'car' image you can get these on polo or button twill shirts, hats, jackets, sweat shirts . . .

And it remains... Voodoo economics! Award yourself a MINI patch!

 

I'd buy a couple, those are awesome!! Are you making any more? They have nice satin jackets on eBay for about $60. A few of those patches and it would be an instant winner!
