Gemini 4 Flown "Data and Notes" Book from the Collection of Mission Command Pilot Jim McDivitt, Signed and Certified, with His Signed Letter of Authenticity. This is how McDivitt described the item on his LOA: "This Gemini IV Data and Notes book, Part No. CF55019, Dash 12, S/N 41, S/C 4, Book 2, consisting of sixty 4.75" x 8" tabbed sheets and six 4.75" x 08" untabbed sheets, plus front and back covers with two Velcro strips each, with handwritten notes on many pages, was flown in Earth orbit aboard Gemini IV, 3-7 June 1965, and is from my personal collection. I have signed and endorsed the front cover with 'Flown On Gemini IV' in green. [signed] Jim McDivitt Jim McDivitt CDR Gemini IV and Apollo 9." Approximately forty-eight of the pages have writing on them, the notes regarding photographs taken, system readouts, Apollo landmarks, and experiment data from D-8 (measuring the radiation in the spacecraft environment), D-9 (spacecraft navigation using a sextant to measure their position using the stars), S-5, and S-6 (photography experiments where they used a 70-millimeter Hasselblad camera to photograph the weather and terrain below them). A one-of-a-kind treasure trove of information about this landmark mission. Well-used, very good.
