Sign In to see what this sold for

Similar lot. (June 15, 1959) This striking cover features these two intrepid space explorers after their historic ride in space, an important part of the pre-manned Mercury Program. There is a large article in the issue describing the heroic effort made by doctors to save Able after she died during a surgical procedure to remove a flight electrode from her body. Excellent condition.
