Yuri Gagarin: His Last Autograph

The two photos below submitted for the Gagarin's section of Roscosmos website depict a historical event.

A day before his last flight, on March 25, 1968, Yuri Gagarin came to publishing company Molodaya Gvardia to sign a new book, Space and Psychology, written by him together with V. Lebedev. In two days only, obituary words were added to the text of the book.

The photos were handed over to Roscosmos by the chief editor of the publishing company Valentin Osipov.

Great photos. On the first one it looks like Gagarin has a cigarette in his hand?
