APOLLO 16 - CHARLIE DUKE ON THE LUNAR SURFACE
Large color photograph 16 1/2 by 20 1/2 inches.
SIGNED and INSCRIBED by CHARLIE DUKE: "EVA-1 at Plum Crater CHARLIE DUKE Apollo 16 LMP."
An image of Duke on the lunar surface during the penultimate Apollo mission. When the 36 year old astronaut descended from the Lunar Module into the Descartes Highlands, he became the tenth and youngest person to walk on the Moon, prompting the LMP to exclaim: "Fantastic! Oh, that first foot on the lunar surface is super, Tony!"
