<Our item number 138350><B>Apollo 11, 1969, Edwin Aldrin&#39;s Eigth Grade Report Card.</B> This orange/yellow two-sided report card was issued by the Mt. Hebron Junior High School, Montclair, N.J. Public Schools for the year ending June 21, 1943. Ten subjects are listed &#40;ie. Health, Music, Art, Print, Shop, English, Math, Social Science, General Science and Latin&#41;. The card also shows him absent 18 times and tardy twice. The grades are mostly B&#39;s and C&#39;s with a few A&#39;s sprinkled through. The reverse has been signed by his mother, Mrs. E. E. Aldrin &#40;x4&#41; and once by his father, E. E. Aldrin. There is some moisture damage to the card resulting in minor ink smearing but this pales against the historic perspective of this card. Viewing it will bring back personal memories of when a student was graded not only on his subjects, but also on: 1&#41; &#34;Exerts his best Effort&#34;, 2&#41; &#34;Works Well With Others&#34;, 3&#41; &#34;Works without follow-up&#34; and 4&#41; &#34;Practices Courtesy&#34;. And the kids think they have it hard today. Those were the days…. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;1,000 - 1,500. <BR><BR>Our item number 138350<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/49jpegs/138350.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
