Item Description
The historic docking of two space craft was achieved March 16, 1966 when Gemini 8 under the command of Neal Armstrong docked with the unmanned Agena Target Vehicle. This button references that event by showing a space capsule with the date "1966" and the word "Rendezvous" on a button produced for the "Linwood May Fair." There are Linwoods in at least five different states so we can't specify a location but first example of the button we have seen and obviously a very small issue. NM displaying Mint.
