Condition: Color shifting and yellowing to sheet, adhesive residue right edge and l.r. corner, handling crimp l.l.
N.B. The American flag heralds the flight of Apollo 11, man's first lunar landing mission. This double exposure was made with a 1000mm lens when the rocket was at an altitude of about 5,000 feet.
