Lot 521
Apollo Program, 1962, Astronaut Candidates "Group 2" or "The New Nine", Comic "Test" Photo (4.25x5.25") This informal, black and white, comic polaroid photo shows the Group 2 Astronaut Candidates hamming it up as a prelude to a more formal Group pose. This pose was used to check lighting and relax the crews prior to the official "money" shot. These photos generally were not published and were rarely saved. The members of the group include Armstrong, Borman, Conrad, Lovell, McDivitt, See (rarely seen in a photo), Stafford, White and Young. A great piece of Apollo memorabilia.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
Ex. The astronaut Edward White Family collection.
