I RECENTLY ACQUIRED A LARGE AMOUNT OF SPACE MEMORIBILIA FROM A MR. LES "PE-TE" JOHNSON, WHO WAS THE OWNER OF "PE-TE'S CAJUN BBQ HOUSE", WHICH WAS LOCATED JUST OUTSIDE THE MAIN GATE OF ELLINGTON FIELD (NASA). HE WAS VERY POPULAR DURING THE EARLY DAYS OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE . HIS PLACE - WAS "THE" PLACE TO GO FOR ASTRONAUTS, FLYERS, SUPPORT TEAM MEMBERS, AS WELL AS THE ORDINARY CITIZEN. THE ITEM(S) BEING PRESENTED FOR AUCTION WERE ALL PART OF HIS RESTAURANTS' DECOR. SOME WERE IN FRAMES, OTHERS HUNG, SCREWED OR STAPLED TO THE WALLS. MR. JOHNSON RETIRED IN 2004, BUT ONLY RECENTLY DECIDED TO SELL HIS RESTAURANT DECOR SPACE COLLECTIBLES. UP FOR AUCTION IS THE MCDONNELL DOUGLAS AEROSPACE CORPORATION COMPANY LOGO. THIS ITEM WAS LOCATED IN THEIR HOUSTON OFFICE. WHEN THE COMPANY MERGED WITH BOEING IN 1997, THE EXECUTIVES GAVE IT TO MR. JOHNSON FOR HIS MANY YEARS OF SUPPORT. THE LOGO MEASURES -- 48 INCHES X 78 INCHES. THE WOOD (I BELIEVE) IS BIRCH. THE ACTUAL LOGO IS MADE OF STAINLESS STEEL. THE 9" x 7" PLAQUE THAT IS PERMANENTLY ATTACHED , READS: "MCDONNELL DOUGLAS AEROSPACE" ----" MORE THAN 30 YEARS OF WORLD-CLASS SUPPORT TO NASA/JSC's MANNED SPACE FLIGHT PROGRAMS". THIS IS CERTAINLY ONE UNIQUE PIECE OF AMERICAN SPACE HISTORY. I GUARANTEE THE AUTHENTICITY OF THIS ITEM OR YOUR MONEY WILL BE REFUNDED. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK THEM DO TO SIZE ---- THIS IS A LOCAL PICK-UP ONLY SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY. PAYPAL ONLY. PLEASE VIEW MY OTHER AUCTIONS.
