This second obsolete original ISS-43 patch which has been listed is not necessarily a replica, but one possibly manufactured by TsENKI in the Russian Federation, according to the seller Magic Cardinal. He said they definitely came from a Russian source.Yes the colours are slightly different, especially the 'gold' on the AB Emblem, is 'yellow' on this possible TsENKI Russian patch. |

Can this Russian source be name here or how does one purchase Russian patch of ISS-43 through Russia? |

If indeed it is a TsENKI patch, then it cannot be purchased directly. That said, I was previously told that TsENKI did not produce Expedition 43 patches before Lonchakov left the crew. |

No TsENKI Expedition-43 patches were made. I think 39 is the latest they produced - with 40 probably underway. |
