I have decided to pare down my collection to photographs only and I am selling off some very nice true first edition signed books that have been in my collection and are the best examples of these books I have possessed or offered. All books are hardcovers with dust jackets protected in archival plastic sleeves. The books are primarily in outstanding condition with no detractions unless noted. Some are fine, some as new, others very good or better condition. Scans available upon request. US Shipping Media mail, USPS First Class or Priority Mail at your request. Overseas shipping First Class or Priority Mail. Please email me if interested. Scott Carpenter — signed For Spacious Skies. Signed "Scott Carpenter" on title page. Not personalized. 1st Edition/1st Printing. Fine Condition, no detractions. $150. Buzz Aldrin — signed Men From Earth. Signed "Buzz Aldrin" on first title page. Not personalized. 1st Edition/1st Printing. The book is in very good or better condition with the only detraction of very slight fading along top edge — otherwise fantastic copy very straight. Dust jacket very good with light shelf wear. $250 Buzz Aldrin — signed Magnificent Desolation. Signed "Buzz Aldrin" on half title page. 1st Edition/1st printing. Not personalized. As new, never read. $125. Michael Collins — signed First on the Moon. Signed "Michael Collins Apollo XI CMP" on first title page. 1st Edition/1st printing — not the book club edition. The book is in amazing shape — all corners straight, very tight. The gold lettering on spine shows very minimal fading and there is an indentation on the spine I believe from glue. The book does not appear to have been ever read. The dust jacket is near fine with practically no wear save for a slight tear on top right edge and a slight fold inside near the price. This is one of the best books I have in my collection. $450 David Scott and Alexei Leonov — signed The Two Sides of the Moon. Signed by both men on the full title page. Not personalized. 1st edition/1st printing of US edition. Book is as new, never read. Dust jacket is very good with a minor tear at top edge. $350 Michael Collins — signed Carrying the Fire. Signed "Michael Collins" on first title page. Not personalized. 1st edition/1st printing. The book is straight and tight with very light fading along top edges with no other detractions, very good or better and a great looking book. The dust jacket is very good with some minor folds or some small tears along edges,a small chip missing from the back and slight stain on back upper edge. $425 Arthur C. Clark — signed Coming of the Space Age. Not personalized. Signed "Arthur C. Clark" on first cover page. First Edition/First Printing. Book itself has no real detraction other than very light shelf wear. Dust jacket has wear and a few tears, one rather large tear on front cover, and a small missing chip on back. Still, a great copy of this rare book. $75. Walt Cunningham — signed The All-American Boys. Signed on full title page: "First flight of Apollo-October 11-22, 1968. Walt Cunningham Apollo 7." Not personalized. 1st edition/1st printing of the 1977 Macmillan Publishing Company edition.

A great copy! $175 Thomas Stafford — signed We Have Capture. Signed "Tom Stafford" on full title page. 1st edition/1st printing. Not personalized. The book is in very good condition.
