Maverick's (Tom Cruise) flight suit patch from Tony Scott's action drama Top Gun. Navy pilot Pete "Maverick" Mitchell wore his signature flight suit with ID patch while training at the Naval Air Station Miramar's elite "Top Gun" fighter program with his partner and radio intercept officer Nick "Goose" Bradshaw (Anthony Edwards).

This flight suit patch features dark blue cloth stitched with crimson thread embroidery used to create a Naval graphic symbol along with the name "PETE MITCHELL" and the call sign "MAVERICK." It also features an embroidered border and is affixed with Velcro on the back. The patch was salvaged when the original Top Gun jumpsuits were prepped to be used on another film. It is in good overall condition with some slight signs of wear around the border and velcro.

Dimensions: 4 1/4" x 2" x 1/4" (10.75 cm x 5 cm x.75 cm)

Estimate: $3,000 - 5,000
