The Apollo 11 Moon Mission as Reported by the Fort Worth Star Telegram

A Pop Up Exhibit by diamond Marchant

Headline Apollo offers an alternative perspective on the Apollo 11 moon mission by presenting what the readers of a north Texas newspaper saw over this 10 day period in July, 1969. Local newspapers covered this historic event with great detail and emphasis, but also reported on other issues of the day, such as Vietnam, Chappaquiddick, Luna 15, Nixon, hospital taxes, local crime, and baby names. Photographs are from the NASA Apollo archive.

The newspapers (except for July 21 morning) and magazines were collected and archived in 1969 by a young diamond Marchant and photographed in 2019.  An exhibit guide is provided.
