    ABOUT THE PRINT.  ED AND ALAN HAVE JUST ARRIVED AT CONE CRATER.  AL HAS FOUND HIS BALL IN THE UPPER SHELF OF THE CRATER.  THE SHOT THAT WENT MILES AND MILES LANDED JUST  SHORT OF THE HOLE.
    ABOUT ED MITCHELL.  ED MITCHELL LANDED ON THE MOON WITH ALAN SHEPARD ON APOLLO 14.  DURING THEIR TIME ON THE MOON, ALAN TOOK A WHACK AT A FEW CONTRABAND GOLF BALLS HE BROUGHT ABOARD THE MISSION.  AFTER HE HIT THE BALLS, ALAN SAID...."IT TRAVELED MILES AND MILES".  THIS ART PIECE IS A FANTASY PIECE OF THE TWO FINDING THE BALL(S) HE HIT.  ONE OF THEIR MISSION OBJECTIVES WAS TO REACH THE RIM OF CONE CRATER.  UNFORTUNATELY, THEY BECAME A BIT DISORIENTED ON THEIR ASCENT UP THE SLOPE OF THE CRATER AND WERE RUNNING LOW ON OXYGEN,  IT IS BELIEVED THEY WERE WITHIN A STONES THROW OF THE EDGE WHEN THEY HAD TO TURN BACK.  THIS FANTASY PIECE DEPICTS ED ON THE EDGE OF THE RIM CRATER WITH ALAN BELOW IN THE UPPER SHELF OF THE CRATER.  ALAN IS PULLING THE M.E.T CART WHICH CONTAINED A MYRIAD OF TOOLS TO EXPLORE THE MOON'S SURFACE.  I USED A BIT OF ARTISTIC LICENSE TO REMOVE THOSE TOOLS AND INSTEAD ADD A FEW CLUBS.
    ED MITCHELL PASSED AWAY IN 2016.  I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE ED SIGN THESE A FEW YEARS PRIOR.
