The celebrated Mercury 7 astronauts sign a semi-matte photograph of themselves posing in front of their aircraft. Scott Carpenter, Gordon Cooper, Virgil Gus Grissom, John Glenn, Wally Schirra, Alan Shepard and Deke Slayton all sign as the first Americans in space. An inscription by an unknown hand dedicates the picture ''To Clark Boswell / with Best wishes''. Measures 10'' x 8''. Cooper's signature is faded; sunning and a minor crease. Very good condition.
