Description

Ex. Edgar Mitchell

Apollo 14 Flown Large American Flag Originally from the Personal Collection of Mission Lunar Module Pilot Edgar Mitchell, Certified and Signed with His Handwritten and Signed Letter of Authenticity. This 11.5" x 8" cloth U.S. flag was carried by Dr. Mitchell aboard the Kitty Hawk during the nine-day flight of Apollo 14, the third mission to land on the moon. Mitchell has certified and signed the flag: "Flown to the Moon aboard Apollo 14./ Edgar Mitchell." This is the first such flag that Heritage has offered since 2011. Scarce.

Included with this lot is a handwritten LOA on Mitchell's letterhead that reads, in full: "November 10, 2007/ This letter is to certify that the accompanying 8" x 11" United States flag was flown into lunar orbit aboard the Command Module Kitty Hawk on the Apollo 14 mission to the Fra Mauro Highlands region of the moon, January 31 to February 9, 1971. It has been in my personal collection of Apollo memorabilia since that time. Enjoy it in remembrance of that historic event. [signed] Edgar Mitchell/ Apollo 14 Lunar Module Pilot". From the Family Collection of Jacques Bracke.
