Walt has asked me to let the collector community know that the next version of his online store is in the works and should be live in the near future.

There will be flown memorabilia from his Apollo 7 mission - including some of the more rare items from his journey.

There may also be a few surprises in the upcoming version that we're sure that no one has in their collection other than Walt himself.

Lastly, I will say that Walt will be parting with his completely signed Group 3 photo. He thinks there are only a dozen in existence. Again, you can't beat the provenance of it coming directly from Walt himself. It is in mint condition - no fading, no smeared signatures. A "must have" for the serious collector.

All of these items will come with Walt's personal COA.

I'll keep you posted as to when the store will be turned on once again.

Cheerz!
Tracy

As always, you'll deal directly with Walt on any purchase. No middle man, no buyers premium, no endless waiting for your merchandise, no unknown seller. I don't get a % either. Walt keeps saying that he'll buy coffee, but I've yet to get a cup.

Best,
Tracy

Tracy,Walts Webslave,
please stop feeding us these titbits as the excitement is getting too much. Make sure you announce the opening in large letters to get our attention and of course provide a link.
Nick.

When the time comes, you'll all know exactly where to find things. Walt is still making up his mind on a couple of the "unique" items and he also just told me about complete crew signed covers from most of the Apollo missions that he's thinking about selling.

Nice stuff all around. It would be a good time to hit the lottery.

Walt and I are hoping to have the store open by this weekend. Here are some of the items:

Flown:
4 x 6 Silk American Flag
4 x 6 Silk California Flag
9 x 9 Apollo 7 Beta Cloth patch
Apollo 7 Knit Patch
He also has a few other flown items that he has yet to decide on.

Unflown:
His completely signed Group 3 photo
"For the right price", he'll take his completely signed Group 2 photo off the wall.
Apollo 7,8, 11-17 complete crew signed covers. [Apollo 13 has 3 and 4 sigs available]
A few other things that he has yet to decide on [manuals, etc]

Does that whet your appetite a bit? All will come with his personal COA.

Again, you'll be dealing directly with Walt. You'll be able to use PayPal and I'm sure he'll accept cash, too.

[And with Starbuck's raising their coffee prices, I'm still waiting]

E-mail me if you have any comments, questions, etc.

Cheerz!

Don't be surprised if Walt's store goes live later this evening. Keep an eye on his home page at http://www.waltercunningham.com and this cS topic for the announcement and store link.

Walt's store has just gone "live". You can only get to it via the BIG YELLOW LINK on his home page at http://www.waltercunningham.com

Flown, Rare, and unflown items are available. This may also be the last chance for you to get a signed hard cover copy of "All American Boys" directly from Walt.

Promptness is a virture.

Payments are being handled by PayPal. If you object to that type of payment, I'm sure that Walt will be more than happy to accept payment via US mail if you drop him an e-mail to first reserve your item and confirm everything in advance.

Good luck! [there's some great stuff there!]

Cheerz!
Tracy
