This version 1 instructor felt patch likely came out in the mid 1930s to early 1940s, then late 1940s to early 1950s. It was typically sewn onto an award sweater vest as seen in this photograph of three "99" Cheerio champions, or onto a Cheerio-branded cap similar to the one seen in this exhibit.

Made of thick red felt with blue and white stitching.

Compare with the Cheerio Junior Instructor patch, version 2.

The "99" was the name of Cheerio's popular yo-yo model in the 30s and 40s.
