It was the 5th human spaceflight of Project Apollo and the 3rd voyage to the Moon.

FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION HERE IS A SIMPLY STUNNING ITEM FROM THE CREW OF APOLLO XI - I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER ONE OF THESE ENVELOPES THAT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY ALL THE CREW OF APOLLO XI. Here is a large, commemorative, FIRST-DAY-OF-ISSUE, envelope that commemorated this great achievement of human exploration. The envelope measures 9-inches by 6-inches and carries to post-marks from 9 Sep 1969 (day of release in Washington) and 20 Jul 1969 the moon landing. The envelope has embedded within it a 3.25-inch by 3-inch, METAL, replica of the plaque left on the lunar surface by Apollo XI. The envelope also carries a superb drawing of the 'Stars & Stripes' being planted on the moon along with those immortal words from Neil Armstrong. THE ENVELOPE IS, IN ITSELF, A RARITY BUT THIS ONE IS MADE EXTRA SPECIAL AS IT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY ALL 3 APOLLO XI CREW-MEMBERS .... YUP NEIL ARMSTRONG, BUZZ ALRDIN & MICHAEL COLLINS :) Neil and Michael signed in black, ball-point pen. Buzz signed in coloured marker. The envelope remains in mint condition.
