Description
The Original Seven
Mercury Seven Astronauts: Early NASA Group Photo Signed by All
Seven Astronauts. A 10" x 8" B&W matte finish photo
picturing the first seven astronauts chosen by NASA for their Man
in Space project. This photo, showing the astronauts inspecting a
Mercury Atlas model, was one of a series of photos taken at Langley
Research Center, April 1959. All seven of these pioneers of
America's space program, have signed in various inks with the
earliest forms of their signatures: "Alan B Shepard Jr",
"Walter M. Schirra Jr", "John H. Glenn, Jr.",
"Virgil I. Grissom", "M. Scott Carpenter", "Donald
K. Slayton", and "Leroy G. Cooper, Jr". The signatures
are generally very good, some lighter than others. Light toning and
corner bumps, very fine.
