Description
An 11" x 8.5" commemorative souvenir print titled 'Man Walks on the Moon' in raised gold lettering. This print celebrates the historic Apollo 11 lunar landing on July 20, 1969, featuring key quotes and milestones from the mission, alongside a First Day of Issue stamp and a commemorative space stamp. It is signed by Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov in black felt tip, adding immense historical and collectible value. Alexei Leonov (1934-2019) was a legendary Soviet cosmonaut and a pioneer in human space exploration. In 1965, Leonov became the first human to conduct a spacewalk during the Voskhod 2 mission, an achievement that marked a groundbreaking moment in the Space Race. He also commanded the Soviet half of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in 1975, the first joint U.S.-Soviet space mission, symbolizing a moment of cooperation during the Cold War. This piece, signed by one of the most iconic figures in space exploration, represents a unique intersection of Apollo 11's achievements and Leonov's contributions to humanity's journey into space. This lot includes a RR Auction Certificate of Authenticity, verifying the signature's authenticity.
