Author	Topic: Unknown European Space Agency (ESA) patch
hoorenz Member Posts: 1031 From: The Netherlands Registered: Jan 2003	posted 07-27-2011 07:10 AM Anyone ever seen this ESA patch? It is high quality, does not look like a souvenir. Apparently, they used all the colors that are normally in the ESA flags. Maybe a try to get a more abstract design, with some hint of the flag colors, but without crowding the patch with the flags themselves? UPDATE: Added a second version of the patch (blue), which is owned by another collector. Also, I got confirmation that indeed, this was a proposed (but rejected) new Esa logo with the flag colors only. Just a couple of prototypes were produced.
