Dave Scott’s flown Personal Preference Kit (PPK) Beta cloth bag carried into lunar orbit on the Apollo 15 mission, 10.25 x 12.25, signed and flight-certified on the front in blue felt tip, “Flown in Lunar Orbit for 6 days during Apollo 15, Dave Scott, Apollo 15 CDR,” with ID label sewn on front, reading: “SEB 32100025-301, S/N 1049.” In very good to fine condition, with expected wear from use. Accompanied by a signed letter of authenticity from Scott, in part: “I hereby certify that the Apollo 15 Beta Cloth Bag, S/N 1049, was flown in lunar orbit for six days aboard the CSM Endeavor during Apollo 15…This Beta Cloth Bag, S/N 1049 has been in my personal collection since returning to Earth.” The Apollo 15 stowage lists identify only three Personal Preference Kits carried in the Command Module at launch and one in the Lunar Module, which Jim Irwin wrote was accidentally left behind on the LM in his autobiography. Apollo 15 shows a marked decrease in the number of PPKs on board compared to the other missions, with the previous Apollo 14 having carried fourteen on the CM. A desirable flown format directly from the Commander’s personal collection. Pre-certified Zarelli Space Authentication.
