This is a very simple printed patch. The half wing design and text was printed on thick white felt. Wing patches are popular with collectors, half wings included. The term "yo-yo" is on the patch, indicating a date around 1960 and most likely from Canada.
A 1960 Cheerio Yo-Yo Junior Instructor single wing award patch from Canada. Red felt print on white felt. The use of "YO-YO" on the patch indicates that it is likely from the early 1960s in Canada.
This patch was the next award up from the Cheerio Yo-Yo Gold Award patch.
