I have for sale STS-1 STS-2, STS-3 and STS-4 original crew patches.

I am asking $30.00 each or a set of four for $90.00 plus shipping.

Is this the 4-color STS-1 item?

These are all the crew patches so YES it is the 4 color exhaust.

It looks like the STS-1 patch is a "factory second," as part of the right side of the "M" in Columbia is missing.

The STS-2 patch could well be a normal early production souvenir example, as I have not seen any differences between souvenir and crew version patches on the STS-2 patches.

Kevin, thank you for pointing out the defect in the STS-1 patch. I have a pack of 25 and that appears to be the only defect in the pack. I had not noticed but would figure that would be the one I chose for the picture.

Here is a better example
