Two patches are on eBay that are manufacture irregulars. They are Apollo 14 and Apollo 17 patches.

The Apollo 14 patch has the Astronaut Symbol and contrail displaced about 3/8 inch to the left, such that the star crosses over the edge of the moon. The Apollo 17 patch is missing the red stripes in the eagle wing and appears to have two different blue areas comprising the background. I've never seen irregulars like these before.

All times are CT (US)
