ARMSTRONG NEIL: (1930-2012) American astronaut, Commander of Apollo XI, the first man to walk on the moon. A good signed colour 8 x 10 photograph by Armstrong, the official NASA image depicting the astronaut standing in a three-quarter length pose wearing his white spacesuit. A large image of the moon can be seen in the immediate background. Signed ('Neil Armstrong') in bold blue ink with his name alone to a light area of the image. Un-inscribed photographs of Armstrong are scarce and highly desirable. Some light scuffing to the image, most noticeable to the upper edge, and with a feint vertical surface crease, most noticeable at the base of the image, and with a couple of very minor corner creases to the white borders. None of the faults affect the signature and detract very little from the overall appearance. About VG
