The Apollo program was designed to land humans on the Moon and bring them safely back to Earth. Six of the missions (Apollos 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17) achieved this goal. Apollos 7 and 9 were Earth orbiting missions to test the Command and Lunar Modules, and did not return lunar data. Apollos 8 and 10 tested various components while orbiting the Moon, and returned photography of the lunar surface. Apollo 13 did not land on the Moon due to a malfunction, but also returned photographs. The six missions that landed on the Moon returned a wealth of scientific data and almost 400 kilograms of lunar samples. Experiments included soil mechanics, meteoroids, seismic, heat flow, lunar ranging, magnetic fields, and solar wind experiments.

This unique custom-made panel honors the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo Program. Adding considerably to it's appeal is that Artist Joan F. Kranz (JFK) also happens to be the daughter of former Flight Director Eugene F. Kranz (EFK).
Joan herself also worked for NASA beginning in 1984 as a computer operator supporting the mainframes on the first floor of the Mission Control (MCC) during the Space Shuttle Program. Additional information about her NASA career can be found on each panel's COA.
A substantial (21.75" x 28.75" piece of cotton bull denim fabric serves as the background for the embroidered patches of Apollo 7, 11 & 17. The centerpiece here is a large hand painted Mission Control Center emblem with Gene's iconic words emblazoned below in raised black letters, "Eagle you are GO for landing".
Artist Joan Kranz has signed and numbered each of these very limited edition panels (visible on the periphery of the MCC emblem). Lastly to top it off in grand fashion each is boldly hand signed by Gene Kranz who adds, "Flight".
Each panel is accompanied by a letter of authenticity from the Artist which reads in part, "this artwork was created to celebrate the approaching 50th anniversary of the Lunar Landing on July 20, 2019 as well as the beginning, middle and end of the Apollo Program. The idea of this panel came from a simple drawing on paper by Flight Director Gene Kranz. The panel represents a culmination of teamwork, leadership and trust required by each Flight Controller when manning a console during the Apollo Program".
If you're seeking a unique limited edition item that combines art with history, is hand signed by the Flight Director himself and created by his daughter (also of NASA liniage) than this is surely for you. It will frame beautifully and easily become the centerpiece of your space memorabilia collection.

Apollo 11 - Eugene
F. Kranz Presentation in
Paris,France
This absolutely unique item from the personal space archives of Eugene F. Kranz from a presentation delivered in Paris, France post Apollo 11 associated with the crew's worldwide tour. I have included Gene's note to me explaining the history behind this one of a kind document.
With less than 48 hours notice Gene was put on a plane to Paris by NASA for the purpose of a presentation post Apollo 11. This is his actual briefing along with his handwritten notes used for the presentation and slide show to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.. The content is beyond facinating and Gene's notes are extensive throughout.
I can best do this justince by showing some examples of the content itself. Additional images are avaialble upon request. There are approximately 40 pages includnig images of the slides used as a part of the presentation. The pages are in their origional sheet protectors exactly as put together and used by by Gene. They are held together by by three large rings.
This is a totally unique "one of" item that comes directly from the Apollo 11 Flight Director himself and an important and perfectly preserved piece of NASA and Mission Control hisotry associated with Apollo 11.

From the
MCC console of
This Final Flight Plan is divided into six sections covering General Summaries and Schedules, Update Forms, Detailed Timeline, Detailed Test Objectives, Consumables and Flight Plan Summary.
As mankind's first lunar landing mission, the Flight Plan for Apollo 11 was among the most important of all documents prepared by NASA. This substantial document held together by 3 rings contains 294 pages and measures 8" x 10" x 3/4" thick.
As you can see in the scan Ed Fendell hand inscribes on an inside page, "Utilized on my console (INCO) during the flight of Apollo 11 "....."Ed Fendell, INCO"
Contributing to the desirability of this document is that it comes from the MCC console of a Flight Controller assigned to that historic mission. It doesn't get much better than this.

He comes with all of his parts and accessories and is fully functional as designed. making this exceptionally desirable is that Buzz Aldrin has boldly hand signed this action figure in blue sharpie on his clear helmet. Buzz Lightyear stands 6" tall and though I'm not an action figure expert, note the manufacturer's stamp indicating that it was produced in 2001 and is awesome condition "as new" condition. This action figure comes complete with it's original packaging though it has been opened so that Buzz could sign. Having Buzz Aldrin hand signed this item today would cost a small fortune.

Invitation to Reception in honor of Apollo 11 Crew on July 15, 1969 at the Holiday Inn, Coco Beach, Florida. This event was held the evening before the 9:32am launch the next morning.

This invitation contains the ticket necessary for admittance as well as a caution that the launch schedule could result in a change in the date of this reception. The original envelope with torn flap but not addressed is also inlcuded with this item. A wonderful piece of Apollo 11 history. The rest is in "as new" condition.

Offered here is an Apollo 12 Robbins Medallion minted from an ingot of silver salvaged from the wreck of a 1715 Spanish treasure ship .
This one is particularly significant as it originally came from the personal collection of Astronaut Pete Conrad, Apollo 12, CDR. The "treasure silver" medallions are amongst the rarest and most sought after medallions ever produced by the Robbins Company.
This is #10 of 262 and comes in it's plastic box as issued. Though the numbered sticker affixed to the box is gone and the foam insert degraded with age, this Apollo 12 relic (1.25" diameter) much like the 1715 treasure has remained largly untouched over the years.
This important artifact with it's own amazing story from man's greatest adventure could be the centerpiece of any serious space collection. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Note: All engraving including launch, landing and return dates are absolutel perfect and legible. Light reflection made it difficult to capture accurately.

Sports Car Club of America Honors Pete Conrad
The Sports Car Club of America presented this plaque to Pete Conrad at their Area 3 Annual Convention in Macon, Georgia on January 10, 1970. It was presented only a few months following his return from space. The plaque was created with a great sense of humor and describes Apollo 12 by likening it to a raod race. Take a look at the attached image to appreciate the tounge and cheek spirit of this award. As you can see, the plaque has a few scratches, no doubt due to it's being moved around during it's 47 years but this should not detract. An Apollo 12 related honor presented to one of it's Astronauts makes it a highly desirable choice for anyone's space memorabilia collection. The plaque measures 12" x 15".
