The next Lunar Legacies space memorabilia auction is three weeks away on February 19th and the auction is now open for registration. Just click on any of the Proxibid logo links on any of the pages at lunarlegacies.com. There are currently over 380 items listed with still about 150 more to go. I will have everything listed and all photos and descriptions completed by Thursday or Friday of next week, and will upload all lots to Proxibid next weekend for pre-bidding. On the site, I have added a new category called HARDWARE because I just received 50-100 early hardware items including quite a few Grumman Lunar Module pieces, hardware from the Saturn V, some Skylab things and a few shuttle things as well. There will also be a heavy metal crawler model. Most of these will be listed on the new Hardware category as soon as I’m able, so please keep a watch. Additionally, this auction will be your last chance to obtain many rare Lunar Module training materials from my consignor, such as LM training checklists, star charts, LM Operations Handbooks, core tube drill sections, etc., because after this auction there will be no more available for sale. Also, there will be many items from Apollo 7 astronaut Walter Cunningham’s personal collection, including many hard to find and beautiful early color numbered glossy photos from many missions. Thanks again for your time. Donnis J. Willis

Another slick auction. Thanks Donnis. The Facebook preview/discussion was very innovative. Picked up a few nice documents for signing at Spacefest at decent prices. The most surprising was the Fred Haise signed cue card that seemed to go for $700. |

Yes, it was another good easy auction. Also, if Keith Haveland in England could contact me at mcglynn@aol.com, that would be great. |

It was a great auction and Proxibid worked great once again. We picked up a number of things and yes that was us that won the 10 foot tall Thor-Agena model (item #37). We already have a place for it in the living room (and I was wondering why we wanted a house with a living room that had a 13 foot ceiling, Jackie said we might need that height some day, she was right!).

It was a good time. Luckily it lasted so long I had time to get everyone done I needed to do that day. Actually won a patch which I was very pleased to get. Been having a run of bad luck in bidding... even loosing BUY IT NOWS. Thanks. |

Hello everyone - thanks for bidding and hope you enjoyed the auction.Packages began being sent out yesterday, and will continue today. Unlike R&R and Heritage, I am a one-man show and it takes a couple days longer to get the 90 different winner piles sorted, the postages calculated, the invoices out and the packages done. Everyone one who has thus far paid has either had their package sent, will have it sent today (Saturday) or Monday morning. Thanks for your patience. Donnis
