Apollo "Brown Leather Flight Jacket". With a faux fur collar and knit bottom and cuffs. The jacket has a brown rayon lining and a perforated "U.S.N" marking on a leather internal tab. There are two large exterior button pockets and one interior "snap" pocket.
A hand-signed, "Williamson" certificate of authenticity is included that reads: "This brown leather flight jacket was issued to me to wear during (the) NASA flight operations I participated in (Apollo Program). During several of the many Apollo recovery operations I was involved with I wore this jacket. As I was flying in a helicopter, to photograph decent (sic) and recovery of the Apollo crew, the jacket was well appreciated. This jacket was also worn during several overseas assignments including (to) Alaska and Norway.
This jacket was witness to history. There is no label or size marked (probably a medium) and the jacket is in perfect condition with only minimal aging. It deserves a good home.
Estimated Value $350 - 500.
