FLOWN Beta Cloth crew mission emblem approximately 9 inches square and features the 3 inch shield-shaped Apollo 10 mission emblem having the flight crew’s last names. Mission events are symbolized with the CSM Charlie Brown passing through a large Roman numeral “X” while the LM Snoopy returns from a close fly-by of the lunar surface. Accompanied with a Typed Letter Signed by THOMAS P. STAFFORD on his business stationery describing events from his flight.

THOMAS P. STAFFORD'S signed provenance letter reads in part: "Enclosed with this letter is an Apollo X Beta cloth crew emblem flown on the flight of Apollo X during May 18 to 26, 1969. I was commander of this flight which carried the first lunar module named SNOOPY to lunar orbit. This Beta emblem was carried in SNOOPY as Gene Cernan and I descended to within 50,000 feet of the lunar surface… Gene and I proved that the planning teams had correctly established the procedures for lunar operations, with just a few exceptions that were later corrected for Apollo 11.

The beta emblem has the distinction of one of the fastest flown artifacts from space travel. During the Apollo X reentry, my fellow crew members, Gene Cernan and John Young, and I established the all-time record for the highest speed ever attained by man – 24,790 mile per hour.”
