<Our item number 139868><B>GT-7, 1965, Prime/Back-up Crew ORIGINAL Polaroid Photo.</B> &#40;7.5x4.25&#34;&#41; This unique black and white photo was taken during the NASA crew photo session by Ed White&#39;s personal Polaroid camera. It shows the crew &#40;Borman & Lovell&#41; and the back-up crew &#40;White & Collins&#41; in a unique, unpublished parody of the official crew photo. Note the headgear. White is wearing a NASA &#34;Photo Division&#34; light reflector to simulate a coolie hat, Borman is dressed as a &#34;Blues Brother&#34;, Lovell is wearing his naval cap and Collins has a nurses cap. It looks as if there is a base to a model on the table in front of them. The photo has a normal blue Polaroid film stamp on the reverse and the usual brown film stain on one edge. A unique, striking photo that is a piece of GT-7 history. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;750 - 1,000. <I><BR>Ex. the Ed White Family collection.</I> <BR><BR>Our item number 139868<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.n et/liveauction/49jpegs/139868.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
