Unique 8 x 10 photo of the Mercury Freedom 7 prior to launch, neatly mounted and lacquered on a 12 x 14 wooden frame, and prominently signed and inscribed in black ink, “To Guenter Wendt, whose discipline and contribution made this day possible, Alan B Shepard, Jr.” In very good condition, with aforementioned lacquering of photo to wooden frame, uniform toning (most significantly to edges), and overall heavy fading to image, consistent with long-term display; the signature and inscription remain pristine. A wonderful piece of space history, boldly signed by America’s original astronaut to NASA’s renowned launch pad leader. Pre-certified Zarelli Space Authentication.
