This is an Apollo 13 insurance type cover hand signed by all four crew members and with the uncommon Huston Texas "Mission Aborted" postmark of April 14 1970.

The same type of cover sold in the April 2019 RR Auction for $9,693.75 (includes buyer's premium). I am asking $6,000 or best offer.

Listing from RR's auction:

Hugely appealing "Type 1 insurance-style" cover with a color cachet of the Apollo 13 mission emblem, with uncommon "Mission Aborted" postmark of April 14 1970, the date of the service module's oxygen tank explosion, signed in black felt tip by James Lovell, Ken Mattingly, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert. In very fine condition. A particularly scarce cover boasting signatures from four crew members, including the uncommon pairing of original and backup CMPs Mattingly and Swigert. A rare and exceptional Apollo 13 offering.

Price reduced to $4,800 firm with free shipping. And if no takers it is going to auction.
