Hi Guys,

Can someone help me with some hi-res cosmonaut scans. I'm looking for Bykovsky and Tereshkova in their Soviet military uniforms circa 1961-1970. Any help would be appreciated.

John,

I don't think you will find a picture of Tereshkova in uniform as I believe she was a civilian. I've seen photos of her from the 60s and she is in a suit or dress, even when she was with other cosmonauts in uniform.

Tereshkova and the other women cosmonaut candidates were drafted into the Air Force before their flight, and there are photos of Tereshkova in uniform, with lots of medals, etc.

Well I'm still in need of some help guys. If nobody has hi-res pictures of them in their military uniforms, does anyone have any hi-res photos they could email me? I'm getting a bit desperate here. Holding out hope.

John,

Now Bykovsky in military uniform is not a hard search: on all photographs I've seen, he either wears a uniform or a spacesuit. One wonders what he wears at night .....

For Tereshkova, the situation is different: most show her in a lady's dress or in spacesuit.

I'll be e-mailing you a few I have on stock - downpoint (for you, not for me) is that 3 of the 4 are already autographed.

Have fun!

PS: Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps you should not give us a hotmail account if you want to receive high res files, or even several of them .... all my five mails with scans bounced back .....
