Description
14X17 X-Ray of Neil Armstrong's worn gloves taken just a couple of weeks before his famed Apollo XI flight. These X-Rays were taken on July 7, 1969, by Jack R. Weakland who worked in the NASA x-ray lab from 1968 to 1979 and told Ulli Lotzmann in 2002 that " he x-rayed everything from pipe welds to the astronaut moon boots, PGA suits, etc. One purpose of this x-ray was to determine and verify that there were no sharp, foreign objects embedded in the cloth - that is, needle points, pins, etc. - that could puncture the pressure suit." In very good condition. This is the same x-ray others are selling including Julien's auction house and others who are getting as much as $30,000 each for some of these pieces. Comes with a full Letter of Authenticity from Todd Mueller Authentics.
