Description:
The Moon, 1971. fine. Silk American flag (4" X 6") carried to the Moon and back aboard Apollo 14. Fine condition (gleaming). This comes with an incontrovertible signed letter of provenance on Apollo stationery, but additionally and more pointedly (and reassuringly) this flag is titled and signed, in black ink, directly on 2 of its white stripes in the handwriting of Apollo 14 Lunar Module Pilot Edgar Mitchell, "Flown to the Moon Aboard Kitty Hawk on Apollo 14, Edgar Mitchell, LMP" an undetachable authenticity, that is better than letters or certificates which can be shuffled (and shuffled they are), as the majority of these flags when seen (if seen) are glued at the corners to a printed certificate, from which they can be removed and replaced with any flag. Furthermore, left over (or faked up) certificates can have said "any flag" added, but not this one, since the signed stripes are indivisible from the flag, and they affirm exactly what it is, and do so on sight, a nice feature if you want to frame it.

Description:
London: Psyche Miniatures, 1936. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. 1st edition in English, 1st printing with the fold out table. Original clothbacked boards, paper label, 2/6 not overstamped (as is usually the case). A few spots to back cover, otherwise near fine, a scarce and fragile book, and one of commanding impact. I don't think I have to hype Neurath's book much, just pick it up and look at the pictures. This guy invented these, a visual language, symbolically representing quantitative information via easily interpretable icons, now taken for granted.
