Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from The Space Collective, outlining the history of this piece: "The flown stowage assembly material came from the collection of William 'Bill' Looney, Grumman Lunar Module Test Manager from Feb 1966 to Feb 1973. The material was given to Bill by his boss, Ted Mormon, and was left over from the creation of the Apollo 13 Grumman Awards.
