Smilies Legend
[i]From (Apollo missions) Twelve through Sixteen they (Apollo cachet envelopes) had been obtained through Al Bishop, then working for the Howard Hughes organization. They (the covers he produced) were limited orders of only a few hundred, featuring the crew emblems in the left corner and were the nearest thing to an "official" cover.[/i]
