Authenticating a collection
I felt like I touched all the bases with this fantastic collection submission.
Mercury 7, Apollo 1, Apollo 8, Apollo 11, Challenger, multiple Armstrongs and so much more. The triumph of and tragedy of space exploration…
Neil Armstrong wrote this letter 47 years ago today. Great mention of Apollo 8 and a rare glimpse into his dry humor...
Neil Armstrong signed letter, December 30, 1968
Claudia Thames worked for John M. King, a Colorado oil and gas tycoon who befriended many astronauts.
As regular readers may have surmised, Apollo 8 may be my favorite Apollo mission. The first voyage to the moon!
I like this Apollo 8 First Day Anderson cover because it has the great stamp block as well as the story of Apollo 8. Of course, it is autographed by mission commander, Frank Borman.
Apollo 8 First Day Cover autographed by Frank Borman.
In the immortal words of Apollo 8 Commander Frank Borman, "God bless all of you, all of you on the good Earth."
