''The New York Times'' from 25 July 1969 celebrates Apollo 11 astronauts' triumphant return to Earth from a successful moon landing. Astronauts are shown talking with President Nixon from their quarantine compartment. The 96 page newspaper includes articles about the splashdown, Mission Control reaction and Nixon's speech aboard the recovery carrier Hornet. Minor toning and chipping to the 15'' x 23'' newspaper, else very good plus.
