Description

Ex. Alan Bean
Penlight used in the Apollo 12 lunar module while on the moon

Apollo 12: Alan Bean's Lunar Module Flown ACR Flashlight Directly from His Family Collection, with Certificate of Authenticity. A heavy, brass-milled two-cell flashlight, 5.125" in length and with a maximum diameter of 1". The bulb and the original batteries have been removed (see adjacent lot for batteries); the lens is intact. The part number "ACR FA 5", serial number "1006", and date of manufacture "6/68" are all engraved on the barrel. "On" and "Off" are engraved near the head which would rotate to turn on and off. A piece of Velcro is attached at the top near the lens. Verdigris as expected, fine overall.

Included with this lot is a COA on Alan Bean's letterhead signed by daughter and Estate Executor Amy Sue Bean stating that this flashlight was flown to the lunar surface on the mission and was in her father's possession until his death.
