On each Apollo and Skylab mission, the astronauts wore on their space suits emblems printed on Beta cloth, a fireproof fabric developed after the Apollo 1 disaster. Some were also flown by astronauts as souvenirs. Some extras were made beyond ones actually flown on the missions, and these 1960s-70s originals make for excellent collectibles. They can also be signed by astronauts, or used in displays.I have for sale Beta cloth patches from every Apollo and Skylab mission. Some are in pristine condition, in the 9-inch squares they were produced. Some were trimmed smaller by someone at some point, and as a bonus have staple holes in the corners (which would not show if matted as part of a display). I will price them accordingly, with some real bargains for rare items produced for NASA almost 50 years ago. I will ship them flat between cardboard sheets for $5. If you buy more than $100 worth, I will include Priority Mail shipping. Dimensions are given as width by height in inches. I will pop in a couple of sample photos, but if you'd like to see photos of any of them just let me know. - American flag (7.5 x 5.5): $50
