Description :

Vintage multi-media set (1 vinyl LP & 50 color slides) covering the flights of Apollo 8, 9, 10, and 11. Narrated by Col. John “Shorty” Powers who was known as the “Voice of Mission Control” during the early moon flights. (Interesting tidbit: Powers is credited with introducing the phrase “A-OK” into common speech.)

This set includes a vinyl LP which is to be played as the accompanying 50 slides are shown; a chime sounds when you move to the next slide. Powers describes what is being seen and gives a history of the program and his colleagues in it. 1969 from H & W Imagineering Co. Inc.

LP not tested, but no egregious scratches noted when photographing. Each slide is clearly labeled in order, but the slide film has aged and become rather reddish-tinted. Comes in original box which is in ok condition showing wear & tears at the corner joins.
