Apollo 17 EC Crew Initial Patch ABEmblem Factory Sealed Original Plastic Rare For Sale

Offered is an original AB Emblem Apollo 17 "EC" (Eugene A. Cernan) crew initial patch that remains factory sealed in its original heat-sealed plastic packet.The "EC" initial patch is the most elusive of the three astronaut initial patches to collect.

To the best of my knowledge, the patch has never been removed from its original packaging since it was packaged by AB Emblem more than fifty years ago. The factory plastic packet remains intact and sealed on all four sides with no evidence of opening or tampering.

Finding authentic Apollo crew-initial patches is challenging enough. Finding one that has remained factory sealed in its original packaging for over five decades is becoming increasingly uncommon and represents an exceptional opportunity for the advanced NASA insignia collector.

This patch comes from my long-time personal collection, assembled over several decades of collecting original NASA and space program memorabilia. I am now selectively releasing a limited number of these rare crew-initial patches as I gradually reduce my collection.

Please note:This is the exact patch shown in the photographs. It remains in its original factory heat-sealed plastic packet and has never been removed from its original packaging.Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description.Your purchase will be carefully packaged and shipped fully insured with signature confirmation to ensure safe delivery.
