Collection of 37 vintage second-generation glossy 10 x 10 silver gelatin photographs taken by the Metric Mapping Camera during Apollo 15, featuring a number of consecutive sequences taken across the lunar surface, including one of the Hadley Rille landing site. Includes several images of the crater 'Tsiolkovskiy,' as well as the craters 'Lambert,' 'Lutke,' 'Delporte,' 'Chauvenet,' 'Perepelkin,' 'Auwers,' 'Menelaus,' 'Draper,' 'Pytheas,' and others. Also includes sunrise/sunset terminator sequences and stereo pairs. Each frame is identified in the border with its four-digit number and "AS15." In overall fine condition. Consignor notes that these photographs were acquired while working at the Manned Spacecraft Center from 1972-1974. These images were used by Planetary Scientists to not only help identify future landing sites, but also to understand the formation and evolution of the Moon.
