I am looking to buy either a full roll or strip of flown Apollo film (from any mission). Please note that I am not looking for tiny pieces attached to presentations, a full roll or decent sized strip only.

Please send pictures and prices. Thanks!

With the exception of some of the blank film trimmed from the start of the rolls, all the film that was flown on Apollo is held in permanent cold storage in Houston.

The late Richard Underwood trimmed off some of the excess, unexposed film and gifted it as frames or snippets of frames attached to certificates of authenticity he prepared.

Unless I am mistaken, I do not believe flown strips exist in private hands (and I am certain no flown rolls).

I don't think I worded that correctly, but I am actually looking for the 'trimmings', but not the tiny bits on presentations. That is what I mean by a strip or full roll.

Whether there are any of these out there is another question all together.
