Two items: original vintage unsigned Associated Press photo, 7 x 9, of Armstrong and his wife on their wedding day. Press caption affixed to reverse reads: “(For use with Armstrong profile for AMS of Sunday, July 13 by Paul Recer.) Another heavenly day for Astronaut to be. Neil Alden Armstrong, the Apollo 11 astronaut who is slated to be the first human to touch on the Lunar surface later this month, is shown with his bride, the former Janet Shearon, at their marriage in 1956." Reverse of photo also bears several notations in Spanish; and an original ‘reserved’ homecoming card, 4.25 x 2.5, for Neil Armstrong’s Wapakoneta Homecoming on September 9, 1969. Card features an image of Armstrong and an insignia commemorating the Apollo 11 mission. Some trivial surface dings and marks to the photo, and a staple hole to right edge of the card, as well as scattered mild toning, and light handling wear, otherwise fine condition. RRAuction COA.
