(NASA. RARE. LARGE FORMAT. MOON. EAGLE. ALDRIN)... Lot 38

(NASA. RARE. LARGE FORMAT. MOON. EAGLE. ALDRIN) Astronaut Buzz Aldrin prepares to place his right foot on the first rung of the lunar module "EAGLE" ladder. The lunar module "EAGLE" is perfectly visible. In the background, the immensity of the lunar landscape that in a few seconds Buzz Aldrin will describe as "Magnificent Decolation". July 20, 1969. The photographs of large format of NASA are very rare because few reached us. They were initially intended for the personalities associated with the space program of NASA and were the subject of exposure in prestigious sites at the time when the Apollo missions made the world topicality. They were later forgotten and for the most part destroyed before being rediscovered, notably during the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission. Period chromogenic print firmly stuck on its original presentation cardboard. Some traces of handling of time. 50,8 x 40,5cm with margins.
