Description

Early contractor's model of the Apollo 11 Eagle

Vintage Apollo lunar module contractor’s model, made of injection-molded plastic and measuring approximately 6.5" tall and 10" across. The two-piece LM is removable from the base, separates into ascent and descent stages, and has numerous tiny projecting parts. Includes the original 10.25" diameter black base, with color logos of both Grumman and NASA, as well as the text "Lunar Module" printed near the edge; this particular base also features an uncommon quote from Apollo 11 Commander Neil Armstrong: “One small step for man…One giant leap for mankind, 10:56 EDT, July 20, 1969.” In fine condition, with some wear to paint and stickers, and apparent prior fixes to a couple Reaction Control thruster assemblies.
