Apollo 14, 1971, "Fra Mauro" 3-D Lunar Landing Site Topographical Map (28x26") This 1:8,000 scale black and white pressed-plastic map of the Fra Mauro landing site was designed to give the astronaut crew a sense of orientation as they came in for their lunar landing. Prepared under the direction of the Dept of Defense and with relief data supplied by Mapping Sciences Lab at JSC using photogrammetric and photometric methods, this map was prepared in only limited quantities, per special request (probably less than 12 copies of each map were made). The maps offered in this sale represent the complete series of maps made. All are in unusually nice condition except as noted. A rare opportunity to acquire such striking artifacts. Some minor faults should not detract. Due to delicate nature of these maps premium shipping may be required.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
