Thank you for contacting the History Hub!
A quick search of the National Archives Catalog shows several results that might be relevant to your research. For example, from Record Group (RG) 255 - Records of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the series Flight and Mission Index Charts “consists of index charts depicting NASA flight and missions” and from RG 456 - Records of the Defense Mapping Agency, the series Space Shuttle Charts “consists of published charts relating to the Space Shuttle program.” Please contact the Cartographic and Architectural Records Branch at the National Archives in College Park, MD with questions about these records or about ordering reproductions. Their email address is carto@nara.gov.
The National Archives at Fort Worth, TX (ftworth.archives@nara.gov) and the National Archives at Atlanta, GA (atlanta.archives@nara.gov) also have records related to space shuttle missions.
Finally, the NASA History Office may also be able to offer you some assistance.
Thank you, again, for sharing your question with the History Hub, and good luck with your ongoing research.

2 people found this helpfulThe National Archives at Atlanta actually has a series of Project Files of STS Missions from the Launch Integration Office at the Kennedy Space Center, as well as other records such as the notebooks of STS Flights from the Public Affairs Office, which includes photographic material. It may not be mission charts, but there may be records of use for a museum exhibit, so definitely email atlanta.archives@nara.gov if interested.

I was able to track down a few scans for the exhibit thanks to those references, and here's a quick snapshot of the exhibit:
For those museums interested in creating a similar exhibit, I've made the files freely available to the NASA Museum Alliance. Museum educators may read more about us and register for a free account at the website. Thanks again!

Sue Azbill Nov 30, 2019 8:01 PM (in response to Jeffrey Nee)I have a number of original Space Shuttle mission charts. I live near the Johnson Space center and had a number of friends involved in the Shuttle Missions. I know I have an extra STS 39. Also many mission patches.
