Neil Armstrong Signed Limited Edition Paul Calle Print#68/100029\" TALL x 19\" WIDTH
_________
SIGNED BY NEIL ARMSTRONG AND PAUL CALLE (TWICE) AT THE NATIONAL AIR & SPACE MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON D.C., DECEMBER 23, 1976. PAUL CALLE, ON THE MORNING OF THE APOLLO 11 LAUNCH, SKETCHED THE IMAGE IN THIS PRINT AS THE CREW SUITED UP FOR THE LAUNCH TO THE LUNAR SURFACE.
PRINT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. CONDITION ISSUES INCLUDE :
  • \"BROWN\" TONING / FOXING AS SHOWN IN AREAS SURROUNDING IMAGE;
  • WATER STAIN ALONG VERY BOTTOM EDGE ... 1-2\" {WHEN FRAMING THE MATTING WILL EASILY COVER THIS};
  • SOME VERY LIGHT BUMPS, CREASING ALONG EDGES;
  • SOME \"WAVINESS\" TOWARD BOTTOM {SEE CONSERVATION NOTES BELOW}
THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO JUSTICE TO THIS PIECE! WHEN PURCHASED AT sale IT WAS FRAMED CHEAPLY BUT APPEARED WONDERFULLY DESPITE THE SMALL BROWN PATCHES (SO MANY OF THESE PRINTS HAVE THIS ISSUE; MOST FAR WORSE); AND FOR THE MOST PART THE WAVINESS AT THE BOTTOM IS NOT OBVIOUS AT ALL. I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT WHEN THE PIECE IF MATTED AND FRAMED IT WILL BE AN AMAZING PIECE OF HISTORY.I HAVE TAKEN A VIDEO OF THE PIECE ~ PLEASE CONTACT TO VIEW.The photos do not do justice to the piece. When purchased it was framed cheaply but appeared wonderfully despite the small brown patches; and for the most part the wavinessat the bottom was not obvious. I have no problem saying that when the piece is matted and framed to your specifications it will be an amazing historical piece that will increase in value.
BELOW READS THE INVOICE OF CONSERVATION PERFORMED ON THE PIECE:

The work was surface cleaned on front and back to reduce surface grime using grated whitevinyl eraser (Staedtler Mars Plastic, Bookmakers), taking care to protect the handwrittengraphite annotations on the recto.

The three crumbled corners were reinforced using all bast fiber Japanese paper and wheatstarch paste (Aytex-P, Talas).

The print was humidified gradually in a humidification chamber to allow the buckled primarysupport to relax, and then the work was flattened between blotters under moderate weight. Aslight planar wobble can still be seen in the upper margin.

The treatment report was written and the work of art was wrapped for hand pick up by theclient
