Description

Original vintage color glossy 10 x 8 red-numbered (AS11-45-6709) NASA photo of a stereo close-up view of a lunar rock, which shows an embedded three-fourths inch fragment of different color. The exposure was made by the Apollo 11 35mm stereo close-up camera, which was specially developed to get the highest possible resolution of a small area. The camera was mounted on a walking stick, and the astronauts used it by holding it up against the object to be photographed and pulling the trigger. Reverse of photo bears "A Kodak Paper" watermarks and purple NASA caption text. In fine condition, with a small area of emulsion irregularity.
