A complete collectionCollecting Space Patches is fun but neither easy nor affordable for all. Some Patches are rare, hard to find, no longer available or quite expensive to buy. Getting together a complete collection remains almost a dream for everybody.
Hence the idea of creating a collection of Space Patches printed in high resolution on photographic paper to be included in an album with the Mission Description Tags. Everybody has the chance to choose how his own album will look like: that is why I called this project "My Space Patch Collection". You can, for example, split the entire collection in subsections dedicated to the various space programs (Mercury, Gemini, Soyuz, Space Shuttle, International Space Station, etc.) or simply follow the chronological order. If you are interested in a really completed collection of all the human spaceflights patches from the beginning of the space age to present day, now you can afford it ! The choice is yours, we will show you how to do it step by step or, if you prefer, you can get the all the photographic material directly at home saving a lot of time. What you need? It depends on how much time and work you want to put on that ... you can choose to do all by yourself of get some help. You do NOT want help: you have to collect all the images of the Space Patches from the Web and put them together in pairs in a 10x15cm (4"x6") 300dpi image with Photoshop or similar software (be prepared to many hours of computer work). You can download our layout and follow the How To Step by Step Guide. You want some help: we can provide you all the Space Patches photographic prints you need. Click here. Whatever level you choose, you need to buy the required amount of 4/8 pockets photo album pages and the photo album. You can make your personalized album cover and print it out in full color or download our version. You have also to download the Mission Description Tags and print them out with a black and white printer (you will get a better result using a laser printer and cardboards). The rest is only fun, cutting out the Space Patches from the photographic prints, cutting the Mission Description Tags and putting everything together. Follow the Step by Step Guide. |
