The Apollo 17 photo is signed by the crew: Commander Eugene Cernan, Lunar Module Pilot Harrison Schmitt, and Command Module Pilot Ronald Evans, and is accompanied by a copy of correspondence from the astronauts, addressed to the consignor's father. Provenance: The consignor's father was in charge of the Ford Motor Company's Public Relations garage in New York City during the time of the Apollo missions and provided transportation to visiting dignitaries and VIPs. He developed friendships with several of the astronauts who,over the years, presented him with various pieces of signed mission memorabilia which he then passed to his son. The consignor and his father preserved supporting documentation and ephemera to accompany each piece.
