A complete and original issue of The Auckland Star, dated Monday, July 21, 1969 — cleverly printed as "Moonday" — featuring comprehensive front-page coverage of the Apollo 11 moon landing. This is the Moon Special Final Edition, issued in New Zealand the day of the historic first human steps on the lunar surface by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
This 32-page broadsheet offers both international and local perspectives on one of the most significant events in modern history, alongside a wide snapshot of daily life in 1969 New Zealand. Includes period reporting on domestic politics, sport, social issues, and an abundance of vintage advertising — from tobacco and fashion to appliance sales and grocery prices. A nostalgic time capsule of Kiwi life.
