Description

Two 8.5 x 11 double-sided “Apollo/Saturn Launch Operations” pages attested to as being personally owned and annotated by Norm Carlson as the lead LV test conductor during the final phase of the Apollo 11 countdown and launch. Both pages were removed from the official NASA manual ‘Launch Vehicle Operations for Support of Space Vehicle Countdown Demonstration Test and Launch Countdown,” with the upper right corners identifying the vehicle as “AS-506,” the serial number for the Saturn V rocket that launched the Apollo 11 mission. The sheet issued as pages 102 and 103, dated June 20, 1969, features an array of check marks and underscores in green felt tip to either side and the second sheet, page 293, dated July 2, 1969, is marked in green felt tip to the front side. In fine condition, with trivial staining. Accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity from aerospace memorabilia specialist Ken Havekotte.
