Submitted by liem on Sat, 10/19/2013 - 23:02

This page is to gather information linking a set of distinct Gemini crew patches to a single source. They are vintage, cheesecloth backed 3" patches. The eccentricies are easy to spot and often appear in matched lots. There is a set of Mercury and Apollo patches that often accompany them.

There are a number of oddities in this set:

Gemini 3 - Missing vertical red line in white area of capsule
Gemini 6 - No antenna on Agena, Agena is rectangular
Gemini 7 - Maroon border, pointy nose on capsule
Gemini 8 - Black border
Gemini 10 - Sometimes, "X" and orbiting arrow is upside down
Gemini 11 - Very long, skinny Agena
