I'm looking for information on a large space shuttle solid rocket booster thermal curtain (inside its storage bag).

I would love to find out where exactly this curtain was installed in the solid rocket booster, possibly for which flight it was used last (or was it used only after the flight?) and potential value (I might be selling it).

Here are pictures. Thank you so much for your help.

The thermal curtain was installed between the SRB nozzle and aft skirt. It would be torn up if it was flown.

Do a Google image search on SRB Aft Skirt Thermal curtain.
