Copper-colored replica of the famous Apollo 11 lunar plaque left behind on the moon, 8.75 x 7.25, which was once displayed inside the Kennedy Space Center Crew Training Building to encourage those hard at work in the space program. The iconic plaque features images of the Earth's hemispheres and reads, "Here men from the Planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon, July 1969, A.D., We came in peace for all mankind," with facsimile signatures of the Apollo 11 crew (Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins) and President Richard Nixon below. Affixed to a wooden 10.5 x 13 mount with affixed caption, "This Apollo 11 plaque was adhered to the KSC Crew Training Building Lunar Surface and LM Astronaut Training Area Entrance Door as a motivational 'tool' and 'good luck charm.'" In very good to fine condition, with light scratching and scuffing to the plaque. From the collection of Dan Schaiewitz, who worked as Extravehicular Crew Training Engineer at KSC.
