I received in the mail today the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation (ASF) newsletter with a recap of their recent activities including the last autograph show. Looking through it I came across a photo of Eileen Collins signing a large print depicting the SCA, shuttle, and C-9 with a sunrise background.I couldn't tell from the shot if this was a painting or an enlargement of a photograph, but my guess is it was artwork, and it looked great. Unfortunately a search online has turned up nothing, so I was wondering if anyone here who attended the show might have seen it or otherwise knows of it. For those who get the ASF materials, take a look at page 11. Thank in advance for any tips. |

I thought I had seen something resembling your description in the Dryden SCA image archive but I cant find it in there!I'd be interested to see it when someone does turn it up. |

The photo is of Endeavour departing Florida taken by Karl Ronstrom of First Photo Studio in Cocoa Beach, Fla. I believe the particular print shown in the newsletter being signed by Eileen Collins was auctioned off by the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation. |

Thanks Robert... that's the image all right. Unfortunately I've been all over his website and can't find it on there. |

I don't think it is on his website, but contact Karl (either by phone or e-mail; the latter is the watermark on the photo above) and I'm sure he can help you... |
