I`ve been checking through many posts and one topic that doesn`t seem to pop up is "chat" about items from Superior.

I`ve seen posts that Superior is having another auction shortly but I can`t find anything on Collectspace of particular items they have for auction ie: quality of autographs etc.

I`m definitely looking at several items, I may or may not buy.

What I`m really asking is for some feedback on these items please.

Lot 849,852,905,2223.

Positive, Negative or otherwise.

I have been researching Astronaut autographs for almost two years and continue to learn and be confused daily. Relics of the Space Race has been brilliant for me but there is nothing better than asking the "audience" for opinions as well.

If this is a "taboo" subject before an Auction please let me know although I can`t see why it would.

Thanks for reading this post and I hope you may be able to help me and maybe others who are fairly new learn a little more.

I emailed Joe Davies several years ago and he gave me some excellent tips, one being from memory was to be patient and the right item would come along. Gee ! I never realized how much patience a collector needs.

Welcome to the gang !

As far as I am experienced discussions about Superior are not a taboo topic at all.

They occasionally take place here, but regularly on several Yahoo forums. Most prominently (about that one and auctions in general):
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/astronauts

Several knowledgable members of that group (including Joe Davies) post here on collectspace occasionally to regularly as well, including the owner/moderator Al Hallonquist aka albatron@aol.com .

Best wishes, success and have fun,
