Description

Two photos: a satin-finish 10 x 8 photo of astronaut nurse Dee O’Hara hugging a large jug of ‘urine,’ a prank provided by Wally Schirra, signed in blue felt tip, “Gotcha! Wally Schirra, 9/62” and “What a warm feeling! Dee O’Hara, Mercury Nurse”; and a satin-finish 10 x 8 photo of O’Hara pointing at a seated Schirra, clad in his flight suit, signed in blue felt tip, “‘Yes Ma’am sir,’ Wally Schirra” and “Dee O’Hara, MA-8 Nurse.” In overall very fine condition.

After asking Schirra for a urine sample, Dee became the subject of one of his famous pranks, returning to her desk to find a huge, five-gallon jar half-filled with apple juice and a note from Schirra.
