Society of Experimental Test Pilots - Multi-Signed 13th Awards Banquet Program - Authentic and Info?

Signatures look authentic but welcome confirmation or concerns.  Also, would appreciate any information on SETP and if this awards banquet had any additional significance being two months after first moon landing.

  • Wally Schirra (signed again on back cover)
  • Frank Borman
  • Fred Haise
  • Scott Carpenter
  • James Lovell

Thank you.

Very nice program. Signatures are all good.

This was an annual event and signed programs surface on occasion. The annual guest list fluctuated based on what was the "theme" that year. I assume the event in 1969 was especially astronaut heavy due to the moon landing. Too bad no Armstrong or Aldrin. I do not know if they were in attendance.

Thank you, Steve.  Appreciate the confirmation on signatures and additional detail on event.

According to wikipedia, Armstrong and Aldrin were both members of SETP.  Not sure if they or other astronauts were in attendance but no signatures unfortunately.  The back of the program lists sponsors.  I would need to find the copy I made of the program to see what was on the inside since this is framed only showing front and back.  However, I believe it is the list of speakers with no additional signatures.
