Sent to you in a crystal-clear acid-free archival plastic re-sealable envelope. Take care that the envelope adhesive does not come into contact with the document. In 1969 I was a 15-year-old space geek. I lived in the Washington D. C. suburb of Suitland, Maryland and from time to time I would go down to the NASA Headquarters building on E Street, SW. Without any credentials, I would stroll into the Press Office and brashly help myself to the stacks of official NASA Press Releases, photos and Press Kits and pick-up a copy of whatever caught my fancy.There was no security in those days and the staff must have thought I was a gofer for one of the many news agencies in town. I studied and cherished those documents and, leaving for college, stored them safely away at my parent’s house. Now, after being undisturbed for nearly 50 years, I have reopened the boxes and I am now making them available for purchase.
