The Apollo Program took place between 1969 and 1972 and was NASA’s project that first put humans on the moon and brought them safely back to Earth. Apollo 11, with astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, was the first mission to achieve this and was followed by five more Apollo missions that also accomplished this main objective.

Very Scarce Collection of Four Jack Swigert Flown Apollo 13 Space Suit Patches
Exceptionally rare collection of Jack Swigert’s Apollo 13 flown spacesuit beta cloth patches. The crew endured incredible circumstances after launching 11 April 1970, when two days later, they were forced into an emergency turn-around before ever reaching the moon. Fortunately the astronauts expertly improvised a repair to the spacecraft and narrowly escaped disaster, ultimately returning safely to Earth. Beta cloth patches were designed from a material made of fireproof material woven from Teflon fibers. NASA spacesuits each featured four beta cloth patches, including a name tag, the NASA logo, mission insignia, and an American flag. All four of Swigert’s patches are intact and housed in sheaths of plastic for protection in the following order: the first depicts his last name, measuring 5” x 2”, the second depicts the traditional NASA logo, measuring 5” x 4.25”, the third, the Apollo 13 mission insignia including the name of the mission, three of Apollo’s chariot horses flying toward the Moon, and the slogan ”Ex Luna, Scientia” (”from the moon, knowledge”), measuring 4” x 4”, and the fourth, an American flag measuring 7.25” x 5.25”. Patches have some toning, particularly to edges, and a fold running vertically through American flag, though each could be removed from plastic and nicely framed. With an LOA from Swigert’s sister. Sold for $27,500.
Exceptionally large and rare United States flag flown aboard Apollo 12, and included on the lunar module Intrepid when it landed on the Moon in November 1969. Flag measures 18” x 11.5”, one of the largest Apollo flown flags, affixed to presentation mat measuring 20” x 16”. Mat is signed by Apollo 12 Command Module Pilot Richard Gordon, above a note stating, ”Sailed With Yankee Clipper / And Intrepid to the Ocean of Storms / November 1969”. Mild show-through of glue on flag; overall, entire presentation is near fine. From the estate of Richard Gordon. Sold for $15,000.

Apollo 13 flown Robbins medal from the personal collection of Mission Commander James Lovell. As the Apollo 13 mission encountered a wide array of problems and complications after being launched, though returning home safely, the original medals were melted down and a new set was made from them. This is one of the new coins made from the so-called ”flown metal” and is one of 404 newly-designed medals. Coin depicts various mission insignia, including the name of the mission, three of Apollo’s chariot horses flying toward the Moon, and the slogan ”Ex Luna, Scientia” (”from the moon, knowledge”). Reverse of coin lists the crew members, space modules, and engraved dates of launch and return, as well as the serial number and the sterling and Robbins hallmarks. Coin measures 1.25” and is made of sterling silver, housed in its original ”Robbins Company” plastic box with an ”184” sticker on the bottom. Includes LOA on Lovell’s stationery reading: ”I hereby certify that this Robbins Silver Medallion – Serial Number 184 was on board the Apollo 13 spacecraft. Apollo 13 perilous flight took off on April 11 and returned safely on April 17, 1970. This medallion was from my personal collection of space artifacts and has been in my possession since the mission.” Overall near fine condition. Sold for $5,948.
