Headlines in ''The New York Times'' from 18 July 1969 express mounting excitement about Apollo 11's arrival at the lunar surface: ''Apollo Coasts on Toward Moon. Midpoint Passed''. A photo of Michael Collins during the astronauts' first color TV transmission, news of a possible call from President Nixon to the moonwalkers and an upcoming holiday on ''moon landing day'' occupy the front page. 15'' x 23'' newspaper runs 68pp. Light toning, else very good plus condition.
