    Description

    What a great piece of space history!
    Straight from Downey California, the ACTUAL flag from Rockwell International's headquarters!
    SIX FEET LONG BY FOUR FEET WIDE.
    A true museum quality item!
    Rockwell  International, the successor to North American Aviation, made both the Apollo space capsule as well as the Space Shuttle (STS) orbiters. Their headquarters are loooong gone, converted to a mall. But the flag remains!
    Headquarters were at 12158 Lakewood Blvd, Downey, CA 90242, if you want take the flag and do a nerdy photo op.
    This may be the only one you will ever see
    ...perfect for a space memorabilia display.
    Purchased
    decades
    ago from an ex Rockwell employee after Rockwell's demise and incorporation into the ULA (United Launch Alliance, pretty much Lockheed and Boeing :) ).
    All nylon. Printed on one side, therefore reversed on the other. Looks like a tiny brown stain on the grommet strip (not on the flag itself)
