The owner tells me that he bought this Apollo Spacecraft Boilerplate from a salvage dealer in Grove City, PA, in 1982. [Dave Hromanik, 08/10/2007]

[RA: To avoid using up all the really expensive furnished spacecraft, "boilerplate" versions of the Apollo mission capsules were created for unmanned land and water impact tests and other purposes. Some never went anywhere, but luckily this one nabbed a post-Apollo mission to encourage human-cone encounters.]
