Two items:

This is a great hard to find original NASA 8x10 litho of the Apollo 13 mission. A compilation of 5 images from the mission, it has been signed by Astronaut Fred Haise, Flight Director Gerry Griffin, Flight Controllers Dutch von Ehrenfried, Chuck Dieterich, Bill Moon and Jerry Bostick. All key players in Apollo 13’s safe return.

Signatures obtained at Spacefest - checkerboarding is a result of my scanner - litho is pristine.

I daresay you won’t find another of these, and there’s room to add more. Price is $150 and includes Prio Shipping in the US - add $20 for overseas prio shipping (marked as a gift). This is less than Freddo's fee, and you get the flight controllers as well.

This is a nice black and white 4 1/8th x 6.5” photo of Sir Patrick Moore, an amateur astronomer who was President of the British Astronomical Association, and co-founder and president of the Society for Popular Astronomy. He authored over seventy books on astronomy, and was the presenter of the world's longest-running television series with the same original presenter, BBC's The Sky at Night. He became known as a specialist in Moon observation and for creating the Caldwell catalogue.

During the NASA’s Apollo program, he reported on the Apollo 8 mission on the BBC, where he said that "this is one of the great moments of human history". He also reported on the Apollo 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 missions for the BBC.

PLEASE NOTE: Checkerboarding is NOT present on the photo - it is clean and crisp! That is a flaw in my scanner. Price is $10 - Shipping $2 US, $9 overseas.

We lost this giant in 2012.
