Signed color photo of astronaut Edward White "walking" in space, the first man to do so on 3 June 1965. Tragically, White was one of three astronauts who died just two years later, in 1967 on an Apollo training mission. NASA photo is inscribed by White with his musings in space, delighting the whole world at the time: "Joe / 'I could see the whole California coast' Edward H White / 3 June '65". Semi-matte photo measures 8" x 10" including off-white photographic border. Photo is stamped upon the border to the upper right "NASA S-65-30428". Light tape remnant at top, one corner shows folding, light bumping to others, else image is clear and signature sharp and overall in very good condition.
