Desirable original NASA-issued Apollo 11 launch badge, 5 x 3, housed in its original plastic holder with metal clip. Stamped as "No. 5930" on the reverse, these blue passes were generally reserved for high-level VIPs, while similar passes with gray backgrounds were issued for general use. The reverse also features the facsimile signature of Kurt H. Debus, the director of the Kennedy Space Center, with text reading: "The National Aeronautics and Space Administration cordially welcomes you to the launch of Apollo 11, the first mission planned to land Man on the Moon and return him safely to Earth. This credential is issued to the bearer for his sole, exclusive, personal use, and is not transferable. After launch, it may be kept as a souvenir of the mission." In fine condition.
