Philly Franklin

Designed by York, PA based artist, Alex Yarrish. On the inspiration behind the patch, Alex said: “For the Philadelphia patch, I decided to use imagery other than the Liberty Bell or LOVE sign. I kept coming back to the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. I used to run across it to New Jersey and back when I lived in North Philly. The lines worked well with my geometric style, and when I made a straight-on sketch of the bridge, I realized that it would fit perfectly within a circle with the type nestled around it. Plus, I had a nice space at the top to put a keystone. For both patches, I incorporated colors derived from the Pennsylvania State flag.”
