In case anyone is interested I have finally uploaded scans and photographs of a substantial portion of my collection of hardware (some flown), autographs, and other spaceflight memorabilia to Flickr. There is also an album of aviation-related autographs as well. |

Enjoyed viewing your space memorabilia collections, David, and glad to see my old George Harvey/NBC red hardhat, along with some badges, ending up in a good collector's home.It was good to see some autographs of many great Space Age personalities. Some like Stapp, Simons, MacNabb, Houbolt, Donnelly, Shea, Kleinknecht, Mathews, and Gruene were probably not too well known, but were true unsung leaders and pioneers of our nation's space exploration efforts.

Thanks Ken. I sold the hard hat a few years ago at one of Donnis Willis' auctions. I saw it for sale last year on eBay for a fairly high price. |

I didn't know you had the hardhat beforehand. I don't know if I had it from Donnis or got it from someone else a while back. It has always been one of my favorite news media hardhats, but I do have others that I am keeping from a more personal basis. |

Thanks for the comments all. I continue to add photos/scans of items from my collection. Here is a new one (Apollo 16 patch) just added. Can anyone identify who "M. Zering" was? (Read the entire description provided on flickr.) Is there any reason to suspect this patch could have been flown? |
