See reference 1:
"Beta cloth patches

Beta cloth was manufactured by Owens-Corning Fiberglass of Ashton, RI, under contract to NASA. Owens-Corning in turn subcontracted the printing on its Beta cloth to Screen Print Corp., of Coventry, Rhode Island. The patch designs were silk-screened (using hand-mixed pigments from Roma Color of Fall River, MA) onto beta cloth 12 at a time, with a separate printing for each color. Screen Print Corp. also printed the NASA logo, the American flag (for crew wear), and crew name tags onto Beta cloth."

You might check www.astro-auction.com for comparable items; signed patches tend to command $200 and up. One uncut Skylab I patch on beta cloth went for $25 on "eBay" recently (reference 2).

My suggestion is to check out eBay. A professor of mine collects those and always talks about getting them on eBay.

Too bad you don't have a Friendship 7 patch. I hear they are selling for $500,000.
