Apollo 13: Highly Prized Jack Swigert, Signed and Inscribed White Space Suit Portrait and One by Fred Haise. Considered one of Apollo's finest moments, the safe return of the Apollo 13 crew after an oxygen tank explosion riveted the world and has been the source of numerous films and books. Three days before the launch, Swigert replaced Ken Mattingly who was exposed to the German Measles by Charles Duke as NASA could not risk an infection during the mission. Scores of signed photos exist pre-signed before the mission by Mattingly thus making Swigert especially scarce and prized by collectors. Inscribed and signed 7 x 9½" color photo (white borders trimmed precisely) signed as Jack Swigert. Complimenting the Swigert signed photo is one by Fred Haise who has inscribed on an 8 x 10" white space suit portrait to Ralph's Bar & Grille -Best Wishes Fred Haise, Apollo 13". Excellent pieces.

Apollo 13: 4 flown Thermal Mylar Film Coating "Kapton" foil segment (officially GT-131 Thermal Control Coating Laminate.) Removed from the Command Module "Odyssey" which in April, 1970 carried Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert and Fred Haise into space. The mission resulted in one of the most dramatic and greatest triumphs for NASA in getting the men back safely after an oxygen tank explosion two days into their flight to the moon. The mylar film coating provided thermal protection for the Command Module. Once returned to Earth, thermal coating was removed from the spacecraft and very often used for presentation purposes, usually entombed in lucite. Segments are 2 x 2", 2 x 2½" 2 x 3¾" and 3 x 5½" with heat stress and buckling clearly apparent. Comes with exceptional provenance and a COA that is distinctly different from the Apollo 11 Certificates. Each Apollo 13 COA has an image of the North American Rockwell Corporation - Space Division Temporary Parts Removal Tag clearly stating "Crew Compartment Heat Shield Mylar, C/M 109" from which these were a part as well as an image of the segments. Estimated Value $800 - UP

Apollo 13: Two Great Pieces Both Signed by Fred Haise Apollo 13 LMP, Flown ALSEP Pen Ink, Excellent Inscribed and Signed Red Serial Number. Apollo 13, while not completing its Mission to land on the moon, nevertheless proved one of NASA's finest moments in getting the three men on board back home safely. Offered are two very scarce and terrific pieces for any level of collector.
1.) Ken Havekotte of SpaceCoast Cover Service created a collectible limited to only 30 pieces with his handwritten certification being written, signed and then co-signed by Fred Haise, Apollo 13 LMP, by using the pen that flew with Haise as did the ink. The pen (and therefore the ink) and the crew, traveled the furthest from Earth than anyone else has done since. Near to mint condition, cover having only a hint of age toning.
2.) Superb vintage original 8 x 10", Red Serial Number (AS13-62-9004) with Fred Haise inscribing what is actually being depicted in the photo "Jack & Jim at work hooking up the makeship fix that worked to remove the dangerous build up of C02! Fred Haise Apollo 13 LMP". Both excellent pieces. Estimated Value $600 - UP

Apollo 14: Flown, Scarce, Highly Prized Patch from Apollo 14 "Beep Beep" Patch "Reluctantly Carried to the Moon". One of the funniest "stunts" during the Apollo missions, was the Apollo 14 back up crew, Gene Cernan, Ron Evans and Joe Engle having created a sewn patches based on the Roadrunner and Wiley Coyote characters (back up crews didn't have mission patches) and hid them in multiple locations in both the Command Module and Lunar Module during the flight of Shepard, Mitchell and Roosa. Open a drawer or a pack, lift out a tray, open a operations manual, etc. a patch would come flying out. One was actually affixed to Alan Shepard's PLSS while on the moon.

Upon return, the flown patches were awarded to various NASA employees affixed to a certificate "This Patch Reluctantly Carried To The Moon on Apollo 14 To Christie Hartman (in this specific case) from The First Team Gene Cernan, Ron Evans and Joe Engle". Patch itself is in excellent condition, still with bright colors, no stains. However this 11 x 14" certificate was proudly framed and displayed prior to UV glass or plexi was commercially available and the signatures have faded considerably, though still visible at close range. The actual certificate, the printed letters and the patch itself are clean and bright.

The "Beep Beep" patch still attached to an original certificate are highly prized and would prove a welcome addition to any level of collector. A considerable amount of information about this patch is available on line, much of it quite amusing. Estimated Value $1,500 - UP
