Description
Apollo Moonwalkers: Twelve Signed Individual Lunar Surface Astronaut Photos. A beautiful and unique collection of photos. Each moonwalker is represented here with a signed photo of them on the lunar surface. A very noteworthy assemblage of photos. Following is a list of each item in order of stepping on the moon:(1) A 10" x 8" glossy photo on Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper of the only 70mm still of Neil Armstrong on the moon. Signed in gold felt tip: " To Ron Heiskell/ All The Best/ Neil Armstrong". Accompanied by copies of email correspondence with Armstrong concerning rarity of photo and signature. Smudging to inscription and signature, photo is excellent.
(2) A 10" x 8" glossy photo on Kodak Professional paper of the iconic "Visor" shot with Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface. Signed boldly in blue felt tip: " Buzz Aldrin". Excellent.
(3) A 10" x 8" silk finish B&W photo, NASA image AS12-49-7278, of Alan Bean holding a Special Environmental Sample Container filled with lunar soil; photographer Charles Conrad is visible in his visor. Signed boldly in blue felt tip: " Alan Bean/ Apollo 12", and " Charles Conrad/ Cdr Apollo XII". Very fine.
(4) A 10" x 8" NASA litho print of Charles Conrad working at the Modular Equipment Stowage Assembly (MESA), signed in black felt tip: " Charles Conrad Jr/ Apollo XII Cdr". Very fine.
(5) A 14" x 11" silk finish photo of Alan Shepard holding the flag on the moon with photographer Edgar Mitchell's shadow in the foreground. Signed boldly in black felt tip: " Alan Shepard". Very fine.
(6) A 10" x 8" silk finish photo of Edgar Mitchell standing next to the American flag on the moon. He has signed in silver felt tip: " Edgar Mitchell/ 6 th man to walk on the moon/ Apollo 14". Excellent.
(7) A 10" x 8" silk finish photo on Kodak Endura paper of Dave Scott driving the Lunar Rover, signed in black felt tip: " Dave Scott/ Apollo 15 CDR". Excellent.
(8) A 14" x 11" NASA litho print of James Irwin inspecting and loading the lunar rover. Signed in black ink: " Jim Irwin". The first time Heritage has offered this photo signed. Very fine.
(9) A 10" x 8" silk finish photo of John Young on the moon with the LRV in the background. He has signed in silver felt tip: " John Young/ Apollo 16 CDR". Excellent.
(10) A 10" x 8" glossy photo of Duke next to the Lunar Rover, signed in black felt tip: " Aim high/ Charlie Duke". Very fine.
(11) A 11" x 8.5" glossy photo, NASA image AS17-140-21388, of Cernan standing between the American flag and the LRV. Signed in black felt tip: " Gene Cernan/ Apollo XVII/ Last Man/ On/ The Moon". Excellent.
(12) A 10" x 8" silk finish photo of Harrison Schmitt walking along the lunar surface. Signed in silver felt tip: "Harrison H. Schmitt". Excellent.
What a fabulous way to obtain a signature of each moonwalker directly on a photo of them exploring the lunar surface.
