Alan Shepard's (Scott Glenn) half-size Freedom 7 capsule replica from Philip Kaufman's historical drama The Right Stuff. Shepard joined a group of his fellow top Air Force pilots as they participated in the Mercury 7 program that led to his manned spaceflight in 1961.

It features a square plexiglass observation window on one side and is affixed with yellow decals reading "FREEDOM 7" and "UNITED STATES" as well as an American flag and a decorative port near the bottom. It exhibits signs of use and wear, including some rust and indentations on the top section, but remains in good overall condition. Dimensions: 55" x 35" x 35" (135.75 cm x 89 cm x 89 cm)
