I have all framed and most from original dates: - Mercury patches 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9
- Apollo patches 1, 7-17 and Apollo Mission patch
- Skylab patches 1-3
- Shuttle patches starting no. 1
Is it better to sell the patches as they are (in frame) or individual? |

Souvenir patches can be sold as a framed set but some of the harder to find and rarer patches you might want to sell one at a time. |

There were no patches for the Mercury missions.That said, it all depends on whether the patches are smaller-sized (usually 3" for the later programs) than the originals. Usually for "non-official" sizes, it's better to sell them as a group. And personally, I would sell them without the frame as the glass can break during shipping. Unless there's something significant about the frame, e.g., a set of patches was presented to a worker or employee. |

If you can post pictures here we can tell you if there are any rare and/or valuable patches in the collection.
