Man, do I have to be BEFORE Philip??? Kirsten, no probs, just be a bit more patient and it'll come back to you. It's true that a lot of people have not seen anything yet. And having it later doesn't necessarily mean it will not contain anything to your taste.. Cheers Frédéric Janik

OK - last one in the queue. Didn't mean to "sound" impatient. Seems I misunderstood something - I thought that the smaller one here in Europe had been started by someone else. Kirsten

Dear all,The Space Goodies Box has surfaced! It arrived here today and I was amazed at the amount of interesting stuff there is.. I took one of the Apollo 8 covers, the Apollo 15 patch, one of the issues of Spaceflight, the Apollo 15 "X", and one of the Crippen-signed space shots cards. I added several lithos and photos, an autograph from astronaut Jean-François Clervoy, one from cosmonaut Feoktistov and one from veteran cosmonaut Viktor Gorbatko. I also added an ESA pen and a fragment of a real meteorite (no, not a lunar one, sorry!). On top of those there are lots of other nice items in the box - stamps, covers, patches etc.. something for everyone I guess. If I remember correctly I'll pass it on to Philip in Belgium who will subsequently ship it back to the US. I'll mail it soon but first need to buy a new box as this one did not survive the long trips! Cheers Frederic Janik

I hit the wrong button...anyway, I would love to get something from the goody bag for this big auction project I am working on. The event is in April, so you think that I have a chance? Is this bag something like take an item, leave an item? Thanks for your help, and put me on the list! Pam in AZ |

Holiday Greetings to all!Happy to see the Grab bag hasn't gone into the black hole of international postal services, still alive and well. I see the list goes to Maryland Space Gary. I belive the next three are Richard, posted 7/25, Steve Smith, posted 8/1, then myself, posted 8/30. If the next in line after me doesn't mind, I would like to pay RT postage to the founder of this adventure, Jake, who is right up the road from me. He deserves a chance to peruse the contents! Then, I will send it on. Regards, Sheila |

Frederic the "Christmas ornament" Finnish Post-Office box arrived safely ! Trying to be short here; I took the Boeing T-shirt (makes the package a lot flatter ), a few of the stickers added by Steven Kaplan ( there're lots more no worry ), the old 1969 BIS Spaceflight magazine, the very small 2 inch Apollo lunar rover for my 2 year old son, the ISS litho. I have added 5 BIS Spaceflight for our US-friends, CD-ROMs with High resoluion scans of Crew-portraits & individual Astronaut portraits ... the latter 2 CD-ROMs took me years to get together, so PLEASE leave these in the box and pass them on ( I have written on the CD-box : Copy onto Your Hard-Disk and pass-on ) ... Hope everybody appreciates this effort ! Best regards & seasons greetings ! |
