Three negatives of the original artwork from which the dies for the Apollo 11 commemorative medallion were made, plus a proof strike of the die that was carried on the mission. Each negative measures approximately 4˝ x 3.25˝, and includes one image of the obverse, and two variants of the reverse (one obviously dropped in favor of the other). Additionally includes a 6˝ x 6˝ metal plate with proof strikes of the dies: one side with an Apollo program logo, encircled by the text, "Lunar Landing, Apollo-NASA, July 1969," and the other reading, "The die for this medallion was carried to the Moon and back by the crew of Apollo 11 in July 1969," with the facsimile signatures of all three crew members below. A rare and interesting artifact from the most famous of the Apollo missions.
