Uncommon Skylab 2 (SL-3) decal featuring the alternative 'wives' mission emblem, substituting the Leonardo da Vinci-inspired central figure with a 'universal' female body, and replacing the astronaut names with those of their wives. The 4 x 4 decal is numbered 28 in the upper left corner, inscribed in the upper right "To Paul," and is signed in the lower corners in ink by the emblem's creators, Ardis Shanks and Jacques Tiziou, both signing first name only. Nicely mounted and framed (without glass) with a Skylab II mission decal to an overall size of 19.75 x 14, with the mount signed in black felt tip, "This patch is from my personal collection, Paul Weitz." In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation, which is signed in black ink by Weitz, who uses the terms 'decal' and 'patch' interchangeably.
