Small swatch of flown Kapton foil removed from the Apollo 13 CSM Odyssey, measuring .5″ x .25″ and affixed to a 3.5″ x 2.5″ card printed by NASA Recovery Team member Dick Williamson, who states: “I certify the attached gold foil material is part of the heat deflecting material from the Apollo Spacecraft Odyssey which carried Astronauts Lovell, Swigert and Haise on their historic attempt to become the third crew to land on the moon…I personally removed the gold foil from the spacecraft Odyssey.” In fine condition.
