Color satin-finish 10 x 8 photo of the Mercury astronauts posing in their space suits, signed in blue and black felt tip by Alan Shepard, Gordon Cooper, Scott Carpenter, John Glenn, and Deke Slayton, and in blue ballpoint by Wally Schirra. Image a bit dark and heavy contrast to Schirra’s very light signature, otherwise fine condition. In 1986, the original owner had the image transferred from a set of GAF Pana-vue educational slides titled 'A Step Into the Universe,” and printed on Fuji photo paper. Later that same year, the six living Mercury 7 astronaut’s signatures (not including Gus Grissom, who had perished in the Apollo 1 fire) were procured through the mail.
