A cabin diagram showing the interior of the Lunar Module (10 inches by 10-1/4 inches). This is the right-hand part of a larger foldout document describing the lighting schematic. In addition to the printed descriptions on the diagram, Moonwalker Charles Duke has added numerous hand-written notes and explanations, and “the chart bears traces of lunar dust” — Charles Duke, Apollo 16 Lunar Module Pilot

From “Mooncollector” Jim Ruddy lifetime collection, When Jim turned 82 and his health was failing, he wanted to bundle his collection of lunar surface artifacts together in a single sale to someone who would care for them, and so he contacted me. I agreed to procure the collection and spent some time with him discussing each artifact at his home in Palm Springs. He was meticulous and carefully framed each precious treasure. Soon after I added this to the FV space collection in 2015, he passed away.
