I am new here and trying to help out a friend with the sale of her father's collection of space memorabilia. He had an amazing collection of things — parts of space shuttles, heat shields, rockets, patches, hats, pins, books, records signed by buzz. The first stuff I am trying to help with is the patches he bought at all the launches he went to. I have spoken to a few people in the know and have a ballpark idea of what these are worth but am looking to others with more experience to let me know what a fair price for these is. Here is a link to Dropbox so you can go and look at the pdfs I have made showing the scans of the patches. Let me know if you're interested in any of them. Most I have multiples, of some only one. Some I have ten or more of. It's a big box of patches. Next up will be the pins. I'll do my best to answer all the questions asked. |

I collect patches, but not avidly so by any stretch. In my opinion, these are worth not a great deal (individually) at all. Then there's finding a market for them in this community. |

Thanks! I appreciate that a lot. just because it looks cool or you think it's cool, doesn't mean it's worth anything. I am putting the word out here and there and we'll see what happens. Maybe I'll have a NASA themed yard sale. Thanks again. |

The "unknown patch" is the official crew patch design for the Shuttle Discovery 7-member crew and mission of STS-39 in April-May 1991. |
