Photo Note: The photo was produced from the McDonald Observatory plate M127 taken on Aug. 24, 1956.

Description: This Photo is from the 1960 edition of Kuiper's Photographic Lunar Atlas, published by the University of Chicago Press, edited by Gerard P. Kuiper, which is fully stated in the bottom margin. It is not a digital reprint but an actual photo printed in 1960. A copy of the title page is included, which also has a reference stamp to the Library of the Naval Research Laboratory from which it was discarded; thus, it has an interesting provenance. It is being sold as one single loose photo from the atlas, not mounted, matted nor framed.
