Description :
Authentic piece of film from Liberty Bell 7
Mercury spacecraft flown by astronaut Gus Grissom in July 1961.
This film (.5” H x 1.75” L) is from the
spacecraft recovered in 1999 from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It is from
the pilot observation camera.
Encased in clear Lucite with explanation of origin from the Kansas
Cosmosphere. Cosmosphere currently has the retrieved spacecraft on exhibit
(corrosion on this component did not allow it to be reinstalled the
restored spacecraft). This is #681 of a limited count of 1000 pieces of film. Measures 3" H x 8" W x 1.75” D at thickest. In perfect
shape with footpads – one incredibly small fiber appears to be trapped in the
Lucite at the lower left corner – didn’t notice it until doing close-ups and
even then debated whether to note since it is so small! Just want to be as accurate as possible!
