APOLLO 8 Earthrise maneuver checklist page that was FLOWN INSIDE THE SPACE CAPSULE AROUND THE MOON. This page is rare and from the PERSONAL COLLECTION of Astronaut James Lovell, so stated on the provenance. The historical piece is also hand-signed by Frank Borman, Commander and James Lovell who was the Navigator. The Apollo 8 mission was the FIRST NASA MISSION to leave the safety of Earth’s gravitational atmosphere. They blasted off to the unknown depths of space almost 240,000 miles away to circle the moon 10 TIMES and return back to Earth. The display is 20″ X 17.5″ and is encapsulated in mylar, framed in the highest grade archival materials available. Signed in archival-grade pencil. Framed with a beautiful plaque and a beta cloth patch not flown. (2) separate COA’s from Astronaut Central (autographs) from each different signing. These pages were heavily used and in a binder. This page was unused and in that very binder NASA allowed Jim Lovell to keep. The (2) astronauts later signed it at two separate signings. HISTORY and TIME “Men of the Year” magazines along with an 8X10 high-glossy photo-copy of the moon’s surface taken as the Apollo 8 capsule passed by are included.
