Wonderful color glossy 14 x 11 photo of Buzz Aldrin facing the flag on the lunar surface during the Apollo 11 mission, affixed to its original 20 x 16 mount. Mount bears an incomplete printed inscription which reads, “Presented to Governor [blank] of the [blank] of [blank] and its people in appreciation of their hospitality during the visit of the Apollo 11 Command Spacecraft and lunar rock sample displayed in the Capital,” and is signed on the mount in black felt tip by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Also signed on the mount by NASA Administrator Thomas Paine. In fine, bright condition. In 1970, the Apollo 11 command module, a lunar sample, and the crew visited all 50 state capitals, ending in Washington, D. C., with the module winding up at the Smithsonian Institute. A photo like this one was presented at each of the ceremonies, often with the presentation portion blank, to be filled in at a later time by the governor’s office.
