NASA Apollo 14 Patch, Mission Summary, And Autographs Rare
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:2940412 | Type: NASA Patch |
The lot includes an official Apollo 14 patch measuring 4", the Apollo 14 Mission Summary (Lunar Landing Mission), and a letter from the three Apollo 14 astronauts to a Mr. Buck in appreciation for his work on the mission.
While we are not autograph experts by any means, the signatures of Alan B Shepard, J...r, Stuart Roosa, and Ed Mitchell all appear to be original. They are signed with a felt pen and show the hallmarks of being authentic. (Doubled up ink, ink over the words on the typed page, and signatures that match known examples) Additionally, the gentleman who previously owned this letter took care to put it in a special envelop, which we don't think he would have done if he believed the signatures were fake. However we have not had the signatures authenticated.
In any event, this is a great group of unique Apollo 14 items that would make an excellent addition to your collection!
