Finally got around to putting most of my Buick Uniform Patches in a frame so they can be displayed. Some of these were actually on a uniform I wore over the years.

Jim,
Very nice display! If you look at most of my posts they are uniform patch related as that is mainly what I collect so I really enjoyed this post. Looks like you had a fine career working for Buick.

No, I didn't work at the Buick City plant in Flint, MI. I worked for 37 years as a tech in the body shop of a Buick GMC dealership and nearly 5 years starting out at a Cadillac dealer. I did wear the "Buick City Paint Team" patch on my paintsuit the last few years before I retired. Eighteen of the patches shown were either worn by me or were issued to me to wear. A couple of patches not shown are still on two jackets that I still wear occasionally.
