I have a couple of the Patriotic Style (silver stars on a blue field with red stripes) and one scratched-up Pinko Style (silver stars on a red field with blue stripes), but none of the Total Commie Style (all red) which show up now and then. PM me if you want to hear a price, or to get Bud Gott's contact info, because that's where I got them. On the other hand, if you're trying to replace a badge that's lost so much enamel that it looks like it's been trampled by wild hyena, I can show you a fairly easy way to make it look fine again, so long as the metal is still intact.

I just posted an illustrated, step-by-step tutorial in the "restoration" section of the forum. Hope it helps!
