All auctions / Medals, Arms & Armour / Apollo 14 Flown State Flags (20) - From the Personal Collection of
From the personal collection of Apollo 14 moonwalker Edgar Mitchell—a remarkable collection of 20 flown 6˝ x 4˝ state flags carried into lunar orbit on Apollo 14, attested to in accompanying certificates of authenticity signed by Mitchell, who certifies that each flag was carried in his personal preference kit (PPK) from January 31, 1971 to February 9, 1971 during the Apollo 14 mission. The states represented are Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina (signed), Ohio (signed), Oklahoma, Pennsylvania (marked "Carried to the M[oon]" in weak silver ink), Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. It seems that Mitchell did not finish preparing these flown flag presentations prior to his passing, as many certificates erroneously state that the flags bear his signature; however, only two of the flags are signed. In overall fine condition. A remarkable, large collection of American state flags, highlighted by Florida (home to Kennedy Space Center), Ohio (birthplace of Neil Armstrong and John Glenn), and New Mexico (where Mitchell grew up). Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Karlyn Mitchell, the daughter of Edgar Mitchell.
