My brother-in-law was gifted a 6"x4" American cloth flag hand-signed
on the front along with accompanying letter written and signed by
Edgar D. Mitchell stating that it flew aboard Apollo 14 with he and Alan
Shepard in the Lunar Module Antares and down to the lunar surface.
Plus we know its provenance.
It's identical to the one pictured here.
