Can anyone give me a rough size for the black name patches? I wanna get some made up for a friend and I and I want to know what kind of specs. It looks rough about 1.5" tall and about 4" wide. Is that about right?

Sorry if it’s a repeat Q, but I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything.

Hey!

My “CHEEX” name patch measures 53mm x 113mm and it came from the most excellent ebay seller “katarra8”

My “SQUIRES” name patch measure 53mm x 144mm

I guess the length of your patch depends on the length of your name but I cant reccommend katarra8 enough, fast, cheap and wonderful quality. (She also does GBII style patches too!)

The width will vary based on the length of your last name. The height should be between 1.75" and 2", depending on your suit, body size, etc. etc.

Basically, use rough measurements and eyeball it so that it looks right on you, since very few of us are the exact same size as the original actors.

Oh snap, I forgot I never made my [nametag](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/gb1-name-tag-patch). Gotta do that soon.

Where’s my sewing machine…
