Skylab II (SL-3) Signed Wives Decal
<B>Skylab II (SL-3) Signed Wives Decal</B></I>, number 1119, 4" x 4", including the signatures of crew members' spouses Sue Bean (Gilliam), Helen-Mary Garriott, and Gratia Lousma. Signed "<I>Sue</B></I>", "<I>Helen-Mary</B></I>", and "<I>Gratia</B></I>". The design is a humorous female variation on the official mission insignia featuring Leonardo da Vinci's famous "Vitruvian Man" hovering over the Earth. This decal was designed by artist Ardis Shanks and produced by Jacques Tizou, both of whom have also signed their forenames. Alan Bean, Owen Garriott, and Jack Lousma were not aware of the wives decal (320 patches also were made) until they discovered copies in their lockers during the mission. <I>From the collection of Sue Bean-Gilliam</B></I>.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
