UPDATE: This lot is one of 16 in the current auction that comprise a complete suite of a medal, a patch, and a cover for each of John Young’s six space missions. Because select pieces within this collection are very rare, it took over seven years of determination and dedication to complete the project. The other 15 lots associated with this special collection are listed here.
Commemorative cover with a color cachet of the Apollo 10 mission insignia, postmarked at Cape Canaveral on May 18, 1969, the date of the mission launch, signed in thin black felt tip by Gene Cernan, John Young, and Tom Stafford. In fine condition. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from Zarelli Space Authentication.
