Barbara Morgan – Signed NASA photo and letter from the first teacher in space. Desirable pairing from the teacher who was also the backup for Christa McAulife, whose tragic loss aboard Challenger in 1986 was one of NASA’s great space tragedies. The pair includes.
• An official NASA 8 x 10 color publicity photo, boldly inscribed and signed by Morgan in dark ink, offering strong contrast against the red background.
• An October 28, 1988, letter on unusual NASA “Teacher in Space Program” stationery, in which Morgan thanks the collector for his interest in the space program. She diplomatically declines a request for a handwritten letter, citing the number of requests and limited time, but adds a handwritten postscript.
Both items are in fine condition. The association with Christa McAulife and the Teacher in Space program adds some historical value to the pair of autographs. Signed letters or photos of Morgan are desirable but this is a chance to have a somewhat scarce combination of both.
