| The picture below shows two larger views of this Old Imprinted Apollo Space Program Moon Missions Commemorative Souvenir Drink Glass. There is only one drink glass being offered here. The glass is not dated and the year that it was made is unknown. We also do not know if there was a set of these or not, It is the only one that we have seen. The glass is imprinted in white, blue, and gold. With one view you can see different event scenes including the Apollo Rocket parts separating, the Lunar Module landing on the Moon, Neil Armstrong’s first step on the Moon, and the planting of the American flag on the surface. There is an image on the Moon outlined in gold, and you can look through it to the imprint that is inside the glass of the Apollo XV, with the Astronauts riding in the Lunar Roving Vehicle, with the Planet Earth in the background.
