Great signed color photo of Michael Collins, one of the astronauts from Apollo 11, the first time mankind walked on the moon. Collins is in full astronaut regalia, and a large visual of the moon looms over him. Collins was the Command Module Pilot and stayed in orbit around the moon as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men to walk on the lunar surface. In fact, Jethro Tull has a song called, "For Michael Collins, Jeffrey and Me", in which the lyrics allude to feelings of being left behind, such as Collins might have felt when his two fellow astronauts got to walk on the moon. 8x10" with Beckett Letter of Authenticity. Signed "Best Wishes, Mike Collins".
