News From Inside the Tie Lab

Out of This World Ties May 10, 2015 10:34

It's always a perfect day in the 'Lab when we receive photos of folks wearing our ties. It's even better when they've been off-planet!!! Former astronaut Jim Lovell (second from the left) is wearing our Saturn V tie!

Mr. Lovell completed his fourth mission as Spacecraft Commander of the Apollo 13 flight, April 11-17, 1970, and became the first man to journey twice to the moon.
