Apollo 1 Crew Patch
Rare official embroidered patch for the Apollo 1 mission, 3.5˝ in diameter, originally and exclusively distributed to the crew and a handful of NASA workers. Designed by the crew, the Apollo 1 insignia depicts a command and service module flying over the southeastern United States with Florida (the launch point) prominent; the moon is seen in the distance, symbolic of the program's ultimate goal. A yellow border carries the mission and astronaut names, set within another border featuring stars and stripes. Reverse bears the original "Stylized Emblem Co." manufacturer's label. In very fine condition.
