I have around thirty patches/flags that have flown on the space shuttle (see here). Some of the patches are on certificates or photos signed by astronauts and some were just signed by program managers. Some are just on simple certificates which some might question the provenance. Three patches have no provenance, but I know they were flown because I unpacked them from the Spacehab module. The program just forgot about them and never made presentations. Also, one of the presentations just has a flown decal and the certificate suffered some water damage and mold. I was wondering what the value of these would be? |

Jim, not going through all of them, and not commenting on the rarity of a particular patch which could impact the value, generally I see these for sale on eBay and other sites in the $125 to $250 range. The American flag presentations are in the higher range. To give some ideas, I bought a flown STS-51F patch and letter from Karl Heinze for about $100, a 100th SRB flag presentation signed by Rick Husband among others for about $125, and a couple of other presentations in the $100-$150 range. |

I have scanned the patch and flag presentations and uploaded them (replacing the camera photos). I have also added more items. | |
