This is the right switch/circuit breaker panel for the Gemini capsule. Located next to the pilot, the panel contained the switches and circuit breakers for the electrical power system and experiments. It was installed in Static Article #5, a capsule that was used several times for astronaut egress training in Galveston Bay or the Gulf of Mexico. It is not known who made this artifact. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration transferred it to NASM in 1970.
