LIVE FROM TRANQUILITY BASE: The APOLLO 11 astronauts sign an oversized “landing” photo for a Washington TV personality

Amazing color 16 x 20 photo, affixed to a 20 x 24 off-white mount, of Aldrin descending the ladder of his LEM to become the second man on the moon, signed and inscribed in black felt tip on the mount, “To Deena Clark, from Apollo Eleven, Mike Collins,” and also signed by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. Deena Clark was an Emmy Award–winning Washington television personality who, from the 1950s until her retirement in the 1980s, interviewed politicians, artists, ambassadors, and other celebrities. Clark hosted NBC’s Deena Clark—A Moment With and CBS’s The Deena Clark Show. She also occasionally served as a moderator of NBC’s Meet The Press. Light brush to Aldrin’s last name and Armstrong’s paraph, and some scattered light soiling and edge dings to mount, otherwise fine condition. The impressive size and visual appeal of both the image and signatures make this piece outstanding for display! COA Scott Cornish and R&R COA.
