Apollo 7 - Flown Beta Cloth

-

These fragments were taken from a Beta Cloth insignia which was purchased directly from the mission's LMP, Walt Cunningham. 

Each display contains a rectangular piece of Beta Cloth, measuring approximately .5" x .25". The cloth has been mounted to an 8x10" photo display, using a small drop of archival-grade silicone. Each item comes with high-resolution photographs of that specific piece being removed from the overall patch, along with a printed document like the one shown in the last photo.

I currently have flown Beta Cloth fragments from Apollos 7, 8, 13, and 16. Each fragment was obtained from the collection of an astronaut from the corresponding mission (Cunningham, Borman, Lovell, and Young, respectively). These small fragments were cut from larger samples of Beta Cloth. Each fragment has been attached to a professionally-printed 8x10" photo, using non-yellowing archival materials. In addition, each purchase will include the following: Digital photographs of your individual piece being cut from the larger cloth. Copies of the original COAs/receipts from the original sale. A printed document explaining the origin of the fragment. I offer discounts for multiple purchases.

Apollo 8 - Flown Beta Cloth

These fragments were taken from a Beta Cloth insignia which was purchased from the mission's Commander, Frank Borman. Last year, Mr. Borman held a private signing through Novaspace, and he decided to sell a few flown patches from the mission at that time. Each display contains a triangular piece of Beta Cloth, measuring approximately .25" wide. The cloth has been mounted to an 8x10" photo display, backed by archival-grade mounting tape to prevent fraying. Each item comes with high-resolution photographs of that specific piece being removed from the overall patch, along with a printed document like the one shown in the last photo.   Back to Main Store Page

Late one night, faulty wiring sparked a fire that spread throughout the house. Neil was able to get his young children out of the burning home, with help from his good friend and neighbor Ed White. Less than three years later, Ed himself would die in a fire caused by faulty wiring, as part of the Apollo 1 disaster. In the years leading up to the moon landing, Neil suffered several personal losses and tragedies, including both of those fires. This photograph would have surely been one of the more emotional photos in his collection. T his item was obtained directly from Neil's sons. When Neil died in 2012, most of his collection was given to Janet, his first wife. And then when Janet died in 2018, the collection was passed down to their sons, who decided to auction it off the following year. To maintain auth...
