T O P I C R E V I E WbarnumI would like to get Leonov and Kubasov to sign an Apollo Soyuz TestProject photo. It's already signed by Stafford, Brand and Slayton.Should I send it to one cosmonaut via Space City, wait for a replyand then send it to the other??I've heard it's best to reach Leonov at his bank? Any word on that?Anyone have an address?Please help me with any information available. It would be greatly appreciated.Robert PearlmanBoth Leonov and Kubasov are scheduled to attend the UACC Autograph Show in San Antonio, Texas, August 12-13 of this year. Considering that your photo is already signed by the U.S. crew, rather than risk it getting lost or damaged in the mail, you may want to consider attending the show or asking for the assistance of someone planning to attend to have it signed there. Both Leonov and Kubasov will charge a fee to sign at the show, but you will have the peace of mind that your photo is safe and, if you yourself come, have the opportunity to meet both men.Information about the show can be found here:http://www.autographshows.net/If that is not an option, directions for writing the cosmonauts at Star City, can be found here: http://www.collectspace.com/resources/autographs_caddresses.html [This message has been edited by Robert Pearlman (edited June 07, 2006).]barnumTHANKS ROBERT!!!I'll check into it.eurospaceI would disadvise sending the signed photo to Russia, and lend my support to Robert's suggestion. While Kubasov has a fairly good signing record, Leonov is quite sporadic in his replies. No mail has returned from "his" bank in recent times. I have not seen much mail come out of Star City this year either, and I am beginning to worry about their services.------------------Jürgen P EsdersBerlin, Germanyhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/AstroaddiesbarnumDoes anyone know if they post a show schedule for signing times or are all signers there for both days? Thanks.dave sixsmithIN THE PAST THEY HAVE BEEN THERE ALL DAYFOR BOTH DAYS OR FIND THEM AT THE BAR!!!!barnumI would imagine the bar could be interesting on that Saturday night. Maybe not the best place to ask for an autograph though. LOL!!Any idea of what they'll charge for an autograph?farthestreachesLeonov and Kubasov will be signing both days. ------------------Steve Hankowhttp://www.farthestreaches.commicropoozBarnum-Although not Leonov or Kubasov, one Wally Schirra will probably show up at the bar after the show closes. He did at last year's show in NJ. And you are right - not the place to ask for an auto. Just sit back and let yourself bask in Schirra stories around the bar table! The experience of a lifetime!!!marley quote:Originally posted by eurospace: I have not seen much mail come out of Star City this year either, and I am beginning to worry about their services.Has anyone had any success with anyone at all through Star City lately? (Maybe the good old days are gone?)Mikemunjum1I had reached out to Leonov about two years ago using the contact information included in Robert's post. As of today's mail, I have not been a lucky recipient. However, I continue to wait for my chance to post a "today's success" topic.I would vote for sharing a cocktail in person in San Antonio. Good luck.DanApollo-SoyuzDan- Be patient. I have received cosmonaut autograph requests back from 3-5 years after sending them. I think you will agree the results are worth the wait. Check out some of my cosmonaut autographs at the following: http://photos.yahoo.com/spacecovers2003 Let me know what you think. ------------------John MaccoVice PresidentSpace UnitShady Side, Md.munjum1John:Thank you for sharing your link and your experience.
