NASA astronaut (1931–1982) who, as a last-minute replacement for Ken Mattingly (who had been exposed to German measles) was one of three crew members on the near-disastrous Apollo 13 mission. After leaving NASA, he embarked on a political career, running unsuccessfully for a Senate seat in 1978. He finally won a seat in the House of Representatives in 1982 but died before taking the oath of office. Block of four Italian Apollo 13 Sieger commemorative stamps, 5.25 x 4.25, signed across the stamps in black ballpoint by Swigert. In fine condition, with light contrast to signature.
