Just curious: what are we collecting on the Chinese manned space flight program? I guess we'll have to wait ages before seeing flown space gear items turn up at auctions?

So far - for me anyway - flown covers and medallions.

I remember that Lovaura spaceflight memorabilia sold acrylics with a bolt from the first Shenzhou flight (for $18,000 a piece) and stamps and stuff carried onboard that capsule. I have not been able to find out more about them (this was back like in 1999 or 2000) but if I do, I will let you know (or vice versa, I'd like to know too). Anyways, I hope this helps.

Flown memorabilia from Shenzhou-1 is apparently still available.

Just got the book issued by the "Bank of China" with an excellent photo-report of the preparation and Shenzhou flight of Yang Liwei.
