Apollo 11 moon-flown U.S. flag.

Apollo 11 Flown American Flag, Crew-Signed on Presentation Certificate. A 5.75" x 3.75" silk U.S. flag mounted to a 10" x 12" color certificate printed with the words: "This Flag Traveled to the Moon with Apollo 11, the First Manned Lunar Landing, July 20, 1969/ APOLLO 11/ July 16-24, 1969/ Armstrong - Collins - Aldrin". Printed on the lower area is the Apollo 11 mission insignia surrounded by the crew's authentic signatures: "To Bob-/ With Best Wishes/Neil Armstrong", "M Collins", and "Buzz Aldrin". At the very bottom are printed the immortal words Armstrong spoke as he stepped onto the moon's surface: "One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." This desirable and historic presentation has been matted and framed to an overall size of 15" x 17". Fine condition overall with just a bit of expected staining from the flag-mounting tape and light toning to the certificate; the signatures are slightly faded and the mat is soiled (easily replaced).
