Lot 910
Apollo 11, 1969, Lunar Flag "Tie-Down" Strap (about 13") This clear plastic strap was the only one saved by the consignor after being used to tie-down the US Flag that eventually ended up being planted on the lunar surface during Apollo 11. Included is the consignor's COA picturing four men (including the consignor) doing the actual tie-down as immortalized on NASA 8x10" color photo No. S-69-38778. The original NASA photo included with the adjacent flag lot. These two lots really belong together as they are both part of the same story - one of the most riveting stories to come out of the Apollo 11 flight. Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500
Ex. the Thomas L. Moser collection.
