Apollo 15 Crew

Dave Scott, Al Worden & Jim Irwin signed 1971 USA Space Accomplishments cover with a first day of issue Houston postmark, home of NASA flight control at the Lyndon B Johnson Space Center. The complete three man crew of the Apollo 15 mission who served respectively as Commander, Command Module Pilot & Lunar Module Pilot. Two 8 cent stamps were designed by renowned American space artist Robert T. McCall to commemorate a decade of American accomplishments since the famous 1961 President Kenedy speech to Congress on America’s mission to reach The Moon.

Astronauts continue to be among the most sought after by autograph hunters. Since the Apollo 11 50^th Anniversary in 2019, demand for the best covers has only increased, & a weak pound to the dollar for much of that time has seen many collections sold exclusively to the American market rather than to collectors here in the UK. Our own stock as a result is much smaller now than it was in 2019, with this cover the last full crew signed Apollo cover we have available.
