Nikolai Budarin's flown right-handed Sokol space suit glove used during a mission to the Mir space station, marked on the inner wrist with a serial number, "RN-7A-115-0960397," and printed with his Cyrillic initials, "NMB," in blue. In fine condition. Accompanied by a photocopy of a handwritten letter of provenance in Cyrillic from Budarin, associating the serial number on this glove with a Mir mission. A veteran cosmonaut, Budarin completed two extended missions on board Mir: one from June 27-September 11, 1995, and the other from January 28-August 25, 1998.
