Roll of duplicate negatives of the lunar surface taken by the panoramic camera in the Scientific Instrument Module (SIM) Bay of the Apollo 15 CSM, in its original canister measuring 5.5″ tall and 6.5″ in diameter. The label on the top reads: "Apollo 15, Mag Pan, Film type: 3414/2430, Part 14 of 18, Date Aug 1971, Dupe Neg, Remarks, T71-34p SP 10/70.” In fine condition, with some scuffs to canister and wear to the lid label. This film was directly reproduced from the original negatives taken in space by the 24-inch-focal-length Itek camera carried in the CSM SIM Bay, which was retrieved by Al Worden during an EVA prior to reentry. These high-resolution lunar panoramas were used in improving NASA's lunar maps.
