Kranz, ‘Flight.’” In fine condition, with an ink mark to the lower left front. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Farthest Reaches, certifying it as coming from Kranz's personal archives—"This vest comes from Kranz's personal wardrobe and was used for a number of personal appearances." The famed flight director's dapper 'mission vests'—made by his wife Marta for each mission—have long stood out as the pinnacle of NASA fashion.
