Description
APOLLO 1
Apollo 1 Crew-Signed NASA Color Photo in Perma Plaque Display. A 10" x 8" photo picturing the astronauts posed in their flight suits at a table behind a model of the original CM-012 command module. It is signed in black felt tip: "To Ben--/ With Best Regards from/ the Apollo 1 Crew--/ Thanks for the Handball Lessons!/ Ed White II", "Gus Grissom", and "Roger B Chaffee". Originally designated AS-204, the first mission in the Apollo manned lunar landing program was scheduled for launch on February 21, 1967. A tragic fire during a "plugs-out" launch simulation on January 27, 1967, claimed the lives of the three astronauts aboard. This photo shows significant fading though the signatures are quite clear. Perma Plaque mounted to a 12.75" x 10.75" wooden plaque for display.Auction Info
