Flown to to the surface of the moon
Apollo 11 Lunar Surface Flown Beta Cloth Mission Insignia
Presented by the Three Man Crew to Mission Lunar Module Pilot
Backup Fred Haise, in Framed Display, Directly from His Personal
Collection with Signed Letter of Authenticity. An incredible
display that features a 4" diameter (sight size) swatch of Beta
cloth with a 3.375" diameter mission insignia depicting an eagle
carrying an olive branch to the moon with the Earth in the
distance. Printed just below the patch is: "This emblem carried to
the lunar surface/ July 20, 1969". Framed with two 5" x 7" canvas
color photos on either side of iconic images of the first lunar
landing. Affixed to the frame is a metal plate that states:
"Presented To/ Fred Haise/ In Appreciation For Your Service To
Apollo 11/ From Neil, Mike, & Buzz". Haise served as Buzz Aldrin's
backup for this mission, and would attempt to land on the lunar
surface himself in April of 1970. Apollo 11 lunar surface flown
items are some of the most desirable items from the space race.
This is an outstanding opportunity to obtain a surface flown relic
from an Apollo astronaut directly linked to the mission. Overall
frame dimensions are 22.5" x 12.5". Frame has age related wear,
overall fine.
