Frank Borman, James Lovell and Bill Anders Autopen Autographs on a color photograph (10.5x13.5") of the launch of Apollo 8. The picture is mounted on matboard (to 16x20") which shows edge wear and some age discoloration. The photograph has a modest fault in the lower left hand corner, which can easily be covered by a frame.
Apollo 8 launched on December 21, 1968, and was the second crewed spaceflight mission flown in the United States Apollo space program (the first, Apollo 7, stayed in Earth orbit). Apollo 8 was the third flight and the first crewed launch of the Saturn V rocket. It was the first human spaceflight from the Kennedy Space Center, adjacent to Cape Kennedy Air Force Station in Florida.
