Harrison Schmitt (American, b. 1935) Eugene Cernan tests the unloaded Lunar Rover, EVA 1, Apollo 17, December 1972. NASA Goddard caption numbered 'AS17-147-22526' on the verso. Vintage chromogenic print on resin-coated Kodak paper with 'A Kodak Paper' watermark on the verso, image size 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 in. (18.9 x 24.0 cm), unmatted. Condition: Good. N.B. The crew had just extracted and activated the Lunar Rover and Gene Cernan can be seen giving it a test drive. This was successful to the relief of the crew, as it was planned that Apollo 17 would be making longer traverses than any of the previous Apollo missions (Constantine, p. 120). 'What really seemed fast was the fact that you kept bouncing off the surface,' recalled Schmitt. 'You didn't want to go any faster! The rover left the surface at every bump' (Chaikin, Voices, p. 78). Literature: Hope, p. 24. Estimate $500-700 The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging.
