Description

Paul Calle

Limited edition print titled First Man on the Moon, numbered 795/1000, 12.75 x 8.25, signed in the lower border in pencil. In fine condition, with a few dings to top right corner tip which could be easily matted out. Calle was one of the few artists to whom NASA gave access to the Apollo 11 astronauts, including the morning of the launch. The lithograph was chosen as the model for the first Man on the Moon stamp; according to the consignor, the image depicted was the same used the first time a living human being was pictured on a US postage stamp. Print would make a nice centerpiece for the inclusion of an Armstrong signature. RR Auction COA.
