This interesting Lucite display reads "FIRST MOTOR VEHICLE DRIVEN ON THE MOON. Fiberglass materials continue to play an important role in man’s exploration of space—from textiles in fire-safe suits, to reinforcement applications in the lunar and command modules and now in the Lunar Roving Vehicle. Owens Corning Fiberglas. July 30 to August 2, 1971."
