Description

Apollo 8 launch cover presented by Bill Anders to a beloved NASA secretary

Commemorative ‘launch day’ cover with a cachet honoring the Apollo crew and mission, postmarked at the Kennedy Space Center on December 21, 1968, signed in black felt tip by Bill Anders, who writes on the reverse, “Thanks.” The cover is addressed to Hazel Sekac, a NASA clerk stenographer who worked in the KSC flight crew training building from 1965 to 1971; she also famously appeared in a gag film made by the Apollo 12 backup crew that premiered at the prime crew's postflight bash. In very fine condition. Accompanied by a handwritten certificate of authenticity from aerospace memorabilia specialist Ken Havekotte.
