Description
Apollo 17 Lunar Module Flown Commander's Armrest Signed by and from the Personal Collection of Mission Commander Gene Cernan. This metal, right-side armrest has overall dimensions of 7.25" x 10.75" x 7" including brackets. There is a label on the top, "Pull Down Armrest to Release From Stowed Position", around which Cernan has certified and signed: "LM CDR Arm Rest - LM/ Flown as part of Apollo XVII Lunar Module Challenger Gene Cernan". This was the last manned lunar landing to date and the mission where the most time was logged on the moon. Commander Cernan, the last human to step foot on the moon, used this armrest inside the LM Challenger for more than three days while on the lunar surface. He retrieved it prior to the jettisoning of the lunar module that then was sent crashing into the moon. An interesting and unique relic from this important mission. Very fine condition with expected light wear and soiling.Auction Info
