Description

Meeting his match, sort of

Souvenir matchbook depicting a newspaper front page with a headline repeating Armstrong’s famous “One small step” quotation, retaining all of its original matches, signed and inscribed in ballpoint behind the matches, “To Doug Manship, Jr., All the best, Neil Armstrong.” The Manship family owned the Morning Advocate, the Louisiana newspaper depicted on the cover. A touch of mild handling wear, and subtle brush to recipient’s last name, otherwise fine condition. Unusual! COA Scott Cornish and R&R COA.
