Uncommon color semi-glossy 9 x 7 photo of the Apollo 13 flight crew posing with a lunar globe against a celestial backdrop, signed and inscribed in felt tip, "To Richard Hancock, James Lovell," "Jack Swigert," and "Fred W. Haise." Double-matted with an embroidered mission patch, an insignia pin, and a Manned Spacecraft Center ‘MCC Viewing Room’ pass for the Apollo 13 mission, identifying the bearer as “R. Hancock.” Framed together to an overall size of 16 x 16. In fine condition, with uniform fading to the image. Because of the last-minute change to the crew—due to illness, Ken Mattingly was swapped out for Jack Swigert three days before launch—this crew photo was taken only after the completion of their aborted lunar landing mission in April 1970. Fully signed examples of this official Apollo 13 portrait are quite difficult to find.
