Own a piece of history with the iconic lunar sample bag from the Apollo 11 mission! This simple, white, square bag carried the first samples of selenite material from the Moon's Sea of Tranquility, collected by Neil Armstrong in 1969. Now, this historic artifact is set to be auctioned on July 20, coinciding with the 48th anniversary of the moon landing.
With an estimated value between $2 million and $4 million, this auction marks the first legal sale of such an item from the Apollo 11 mission. Previously embroiled in a legal mix-up, the bag was mistakenly sold off for $995 before being recognized for its significance. Now, Sotheby's is handling the sale, with a portion of the proceeds going to charity and a scholarship being established at Northern Michigan University by the current owner, Nancy Lee Carlson.
