Catalogue description

A 5.25" x 3.25" swatch of Kapton foil removed during an emergency repair before launch. It has been matted and framed in a 13" x 19" framed display with an image of the Eagle in-flight. Both the foil and photo have been signed by Grumman Lead Technician Lee Brandt who obtained the material while performing the repair while the craft was staged for launch on Launch Pad 39A. Nice display piece, very fine.
