This listing is for an VTG Official 1985 NASA STS-61-B Space Shuttle Atlantis “Rainbow” Mission Patch. The patch features the surnames of the seven crew members: Shaw, O’Connor, Cleave, Ross, Spring, Walker, and Neri. A small Mexican flag is placed next to Rodolfo Neri Vela's name to commemorate him becoming the first Mexican astronaut to fly in space.
The patch will be mailed in a rigid cardboard envelope and tracking will be provided.
The pictures in my listings are a very important part of the description….please look closely. I show the front, back and the last picture shows the size. If you have any questions please ask. I am not a collector and have listed each patch accurately to the best of my knowledge…if you see an error please let me know!
I will be listing a collection of 15,000-20,000 patches that my father-in-law had collected over the last 50 years. He started collecting them in Vietnam and it became a life long obsession with him...he was a Vigilante pilot and really prized the aeronautical and Navy patches it seems. Upon his passing I agreed to help my mother-in-law liquidate this collection. I am sure if you’re reading this you know more about these than I do, so if you see an error in my listings please let me know. I will try my best to be as accurate with the listing as possible but if you buy it and there is an issue PLEASE reach out to me before leaving response and I will make it right.
