Signed along the top, “Flown on ASTP, Tom Stafford,” and also signed by Alexei Leonov, under his image as well. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Tom Stafford, which reads, in part: “The stamp sheet…was flown on the Apollo-Soyuz mission during July 1975…This stamp sheet is from my private collection.” In fine condition.
