Robert, while perusing the RR Auction site, their last one for space exploration on April 20 offered lot #9069: A presentation of three cable sections from the Marine recovery helicopter, the ROV and the ship used to salvage Liberty Bell 7; a photo of the spacecraft on the sea bed; and a photo from 1961 showing the helicopter attempting to lift MR-4 signed by Marine pilot Jim Lewis and salvage team leader Kurt Newport. And of interest to you, what looks like a patch lettered 'Liberty Bell Seven - Project Team.' |

Thank you! That's exactly the type of patch I am seeking. I also see now that a similar patch with "Support Team" rather than "Project Team" was also made. If anyone has a lead on either for sale, I would appreciate your getting in touch. |
