I have a piece of Apollo 11 beta yarn that reads: "man's greatest adventure - July 20, 1969, First men set foot on the moon". It also has the Apollo 11 emblem on it and a small, red Owens-Corning logo in the bottom right corner. It is presented in 3/4" lucite and measures approximately 4 1/2" x 6 1/2". I tried to research its value, but came up empty and ended up here.

I've seen them go for about $200.

Over the last few years these have sold on eBay for between $88 and $179, with one example fetching an exceptional $314.

Thanks for the responses, I'll put some pictures up tonight. I don't know if there's any interest in this sort of stuff, but I also found my old Golden Stamp Book titled, "To the Moon and Beyond" from 1970. It's pretty cool, there are several pages devoted to future trips to Mars, Venus and Mercury.

And yes, I'm interested in selling.

Sorry, can't seem to post a pic, but I can attach one in an email for anyone interested. Thanks for the space.
