Iconic golor glossy 10.75 x 13.75 photo of Aldrin standing on the lunar surface, with photographer Neil Armstrong visible in Aldrin’s visor, signed and inscribed in black felt tip “To the students and faculty of the Neil Armstrong Middle School with sincere appreciation and best wishes from Apollo 11,” and signed in the lower border in black felt tip, “Neil Armstrong,” and “Buzz Aldrin.” Michael Collins has not signed the photo, but Aldrin has added his own 'secretarial' version of Collins' signature. Inscription and all three signatures fairly light, but still legible, with Armstrong’s being the lightest of the three, uniform moderate crazing to image, vertical crease touching beginning of the Collins’ signature, bumping and creasing to all four corners of mount, as well as two horizontal creases to mount, otherwise very good condition. Throughout the US, there are over a dozen schools named in honor of Armstrong. Oversized portraits signed by Apollo 11 crew members are highly sought after by collectors.
