Description

An official Apollo 13 crew-signed ‘Prime Recovery Ship’ Postal Cover

An extremely uncommon Apollo 13 ‘Prime Recovery Ship’ postal cover, signed in ink by the complete Apollo 13 crew, “James Lovell,” “Fred Haise,” “Jack Swigert,” and countersigned by the Admiral of Apollo 13 recovery fleet, the Captain of the ‘Iwo Jima’ aircraft carrier that recovered the crew, and the pilot that picked them up. Presented on a 8.5 x 11 commemorative sheet. In fine condition. ‘Prime Recovery Ship’ covers are far rarer than the Apollo 13 Insurance Covers, and this example from the ‘Joseph Lee Wicks Space Collection’ is a superb example.

RRAuction COA.
