Russian ASTP Press Badge

Russian ASTP Press Badge (1.5x2.5") This striking maroon, navy blue and white cloisonné badge (with text in Russian) was distributed to Soviet journalists that attended the Soyuz 19 launch prior to its docking with Apollo. It is the rarest of the badges for this mission due to the secret nature of the Soviet space program prior to this flight. A similar item realized over $325 in a prior Aurora sale.
