APOLLO 12 - ALAN BEAN AT SHARP CRATER WITH THE HANDTOOL CARRIER
Black and white photograph, 20 by 16 inches.
SIGNED and INSCRIBED by ALAN BEAN: "Working on the moon inside my spacesuit was hard work[.] Near my right leg is our tool carrier that has much of the equipment that we will use to explored the moon. There is a hammer, a number of core tubes, sample bags, a scoop and a variety of other geological tools. You can see my cuff checklist and watch on my left arm. Pete is visible in my visor as he takes this portrait of me on the Ocean of Storms. As you can see, both of my legs are getting dirty with moon dust. ALAN BEAN Apollo XII LMP."
