This listing is for pieces of fabric which were flown to the moon on Apollo 14, and carried to the lunar surface onboard the Lunar Module Antares. Each artifact measures approximately 1" across, mounted to an 8x10" photo for display. This item also comes with a document listing its provenance.This fabric originally came from a flag in Stuart Roosa's LEM PPK (a scan of this specific flag's entry in Roosa's PPK Manifest can be seen below). Roosa carried this flag on behalf of a family named the Phillips, who owned Dos Arroyos Ranch at the time of the mission. The Phillips' sold this flag in the latest Heritage Space Auction - Lot 50629, as seen here. Each Certificate will include photos of the original flag, along with photos of your specific piece being removed from it and added to the new display. I've included sample photos to this listing, showing what you can expect. Please refer to those for a clearer look at what you will receive. I have several of these for sale, so you may not receive the exact item in the photos. But you will receive one of equal size, with a COA matching your individual artifact. In addition, I'd be happy to include digital copies of these photos, along with a digital scan of my original receipt from Heritage. I'm asking $60 per item. US Shipping is $7 for any amount. International Shipping is $27 for any amount (although it may be less for Canada). If you'd like to purchase an item, or if you have any questions, please email me via the address associated with my account. Thank you for viewing this listing!

Sent an email.Sign me up for two at $60 each +$7 shipping. Like the Apollo photo you used. If possible can you use a Apollo 14 photo with the MET? Have a lunar surface carried safety line card. Line was carried on the MET. |

I recently finished converting the flag pieces into these displays. So I now have a few which have black ink from the text, if you prefer that. I also have a few displays containing significantly larger pieces (prices vary based on size). If you're interested in a specific size or style, please send an email. Thank you! |
