Color publicity photograph of John Glenn the first American to orbit
the Earth and oldest man in space, wearing a bow tie and suit.
Photograph inscribed and signed: "Best regards/to Cheika-/JH
Glenn, Jr.". Color, 8x10. On February 20, 1962, Glenn became the first
American to orbit the Earth (three orbits in four hours and 55 minutes) aboard
Friendship 7. On October 29, 1998, 36 years later, U.S. Senator
John H. Glenn, Jr. of Ohio returned to space aboard the Space Shuttle
Discovery, spending nine days and orbiting the Earth 134 times. The
77-year-old's presence on the mission helped scientists study the effects of
space on the aging process. His return to space is commemorated on a 33-cent
U.S. stamp issued in 2000. Glenn retired from the U.S. Senate in 1999 after
serving 24 years. Fine condition.
