    Description

    Space Shuttle Challenger (STS-51-L) Crew-Signed Color Photo. A 10" x 8" NASA color lithographed print with a printed caption on the verso, signed by all seven of the crew as follows: "El Onizuka"; "S. Christa McAuliffe"; "Greg Jarvis"; "Judy Resnik"; "Mike Smith"; "Dick Scobee"; and "Ron McNair". These six astronauts and one teacher lost their lives when the Challenger broke apart just seventy-three seconds after lift-off on January 28, 1986. This disaster led to a two and one-half year grounding of the Shuttle program. Signed crew photos from this mission are rare and desirable. This one is in near pristine condition and deserving of placement in any advanced collection.

    This was my first time dealing with an auction house, and I am 100% completely impressed with Heritage. There is not an aspect of this process that I have a critique for.
