Description

Shortly after walking on the moon, Armstrong sends a personal note to a young admirer

Scarce ALS, one page, 5.5 x 4.25, no date (but circa late 1969–early 1970). Brief letter to a young admirer, written on the inside of an Apollo 11 notecard, with an Apollo 11 mission insignia on the front, as well as a printed message of thanks, and pre-printed signatures of all three crew members. Inside, Armstrong writes, “Dear Neal—Thanks for your note.—Best wishes for a great 1970—.” In fine condition, with a few light creases. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Armstrong’s hand. Any handwritten correspondence from Armstrong is quite rare, particularly so close to his historic mission. Pre-certified Steve Zarelli and RR Auction COA.
