National Aeronautics and Space Administration Space Task Group booklet, July 21, 1961, 7.75 x 10.25, featuring pages of images and a recap of the day NASA “successfully launched the second of the seven Project Mercury Astronauts on a suborbital ballistic spaceflight,” signed vertically on the front in black ballpoint, “Virgil I. Grissom.” Light toning and a trivial area of soiling to the cover, with the signature a shade or two light, but completely legible, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from the collector, stating, “I was invited by Bill and Agatha Head, high school classmates. Gus was their Best Man at their wedding. I was the Heads’ babysitter. There was a 3 day celebration in Gus’s hometown, Mitchell, Indiana…We visited at his parents’ home everyday because that’s where Gus, Betty and the boys were staying…Gus gave all of us an autographed booklet.”
