Official color 8 x 10 NASA lithograph of Jack Swigert posing in his white space suit with a lunar module model and the American flag, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, "To Kathy, All best wishes to you, Jack Swigert, Apollo 13.” In fine condition, with a few small creases and bends.
Jack Swigert replaced Ken Mattingly as the Apollo 13 CMP three days prior to launch, when it was discovered that backup LMP Charlie Duke had contracted rubella, exposing both the prime and backup crews. Mattingly, who had never caught rubella as a child, was the only crew member not immune.
