NASA [Apollo 11]

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall in very good condition with wear commensurate with age and use.

Please note that photographs in this sale are drawn from a variety of sources and include photographs used to prepare press articles. Condition will vary from lot to lot but some photographs may display signs of further handling including, but not limited to:

Nicks to edges; fading or yellowing; slight warping and creasing; light scruffs or scratches; small tears to margins; handwritten annotations in pencil or ink; captions affixed to verso; staining to verso; affixed labels or stickers; occasional hand retouching to press photographs, and cropped margins. Most of these will be discernible from the catalogue images.

In elaboration of the above:

Photograph i: stamped 'NASA. USAF. PHOTO' in black on verso
Photograph ii: the smallest b&w photograph trimmed with a crease to the top of the image, with brushmarked varnish on verso
