Gemini 7 - 3" - Dallas Cap & Emblem

 

This variation has a maroon border.

Collected as a set with other 3" Mercury and Gemini patches. This set of patches, while at first glance appear to be regular A-B Emblem 3" souvenir versions, actually have some distinct oddities that set them apart. They all have cheesecloth backs.

Apollo 8 - 3" - Cape Kennedy Medals

Apollo 8 3" patch. This patch is unique in the stitching of the moon with an odd secondary crescent. Additionally, the names aren't as spread out along the flight path as other 3" Apollo 8 patches where the "B" in Borman and "S" in Anders are almost horizontal. Additionally, unlike most other 3" versions, this one is fully embroidered where others are twill.

This patch was collected in a set of other 3" patches, also dissimilar from "original" A-B Emblem issues. 

I am going to tag this collection with the "apollounk2" tag. Leading candidate is Cape Kennedy Medals based on the Apollo 17 patch in this set being a CKM patch.
