Embroidered Apollo 12 Lion Brothers mission patch, 4˝ in diameter, personally gifted to Apollo 7 astronaut Walt Cunningham by fellow astronaut Alan Bean upon returning to Earth following the Apollo 12 mission. The patch is displayed under Plexiglas on a wooden presentation shield measuring 7.5˝ x 8˝ x 1˝. In fine condition.
Accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity from Cunningham: “In December 1969, Pete Conrad, Dick Gordon and Alan Bean left the planet Earth on Apollo 12 to land on the Moon for the second time in history. On their return, this Apollo 12 patch was given to me by my good friend, Alan Bean. It is a prized artifact of the 'golden age of manned spaceflight,' when man first left our home planet to land on another body in the universe, the most memorable accomplishment of the twentieth century. The patch has been continuously in my possession since that time.”
