Very rare official Gemini 9 crew souvenir patch [GT9UNK1], 3.75 x 3.25, fully embroidered with merrowed border and 'tail.’ In fine condition. According to the Crew Patch reference guide website: ‘This distinctive vintage patch merges the lower name tab of the crew version into the main body of the patch. As well as being worn by Cernan on his flight jacket a few years later, at least one example of this patch was also flown on the mission, as evidenced by a flown example sold at Bonhams in 2014 from Stafford's estate.’
