I received the LC-19 acrylic today. It was #20 and it looks GREAT!. It will go nice with the other two. By the way, are you coming out with another LC-14 acrylic with a different artifact placed in it? I thought I read something about that earlier.

Thanks for all the kind words regarding the LC-19 acrylic. I am down to about 8 of them available.

We are going to take a 2-3 weeks before deciding on the next acrylic project. I believe we have enough material to cover a Pad 5 acrylic, and are following up on leads for LC-34 as well. Additional LC-14 and LC-19 variants (white room and tarp) are also being discussed.

#65 arrived safely today. I am particularly impressed with how the pipe section within the acrylic is covered in red paint on one side, but has a metallic finish on the other. I wasn't expecting that, and it makes the item even more interesting in my eyes.

Received my Gemini LC-19 acrylic at work today; excellent service and packaging. Can't wait for more Apollo/Skylab/ASTP/Shuttle items -- sorry I missed the Mercury acrylic sale!

Just a quick note regarding the LC-39 Flame Trench acrylic. The regular customers have placed orders and I now have eight of them left. The price is $79.95 plus postage and handling.

These acrylics contain a fragment off the LC-39 Flame Trench wall that was removed two days following the Apollo 15 launch in 1971.

If interested, please e-mail me directly at roverpick@aol.com.

The regular customers? I have purchased all 3 launch pad collectables and this is the first I have heard about this one. Did the regular customers pay the same price as this one?

My apologies for failing to notify any previous customers. There are two of the LC-39 Flame Trench acrylics left right now. Price is (and has been) $79.95 plus postage and handling.

I anticipate having an announcement in 3-4 weeks regarding a Complex 5 acrylic.

Well... I would be happy to work with anyone who can come up with some Pad 39A artifacts, or Pad 39B scrap. I imagine something will surface in time. When the opportunity arises, an acrylic will not be far behind!

Feel free to e-mail me with any ideas you might have for acrylics.

The supply of LC-39 Flame Trench acrylics is now sold out. These will be shipping in 2-3 weeks.

Look for Complex 5 acrylic updates in the coming weeks.

When do you need the rest of the payment for us that put down a down-payment on the piece?

I received #21/45 of LC#39 acrylic today. It really looks great. I placed and order for LC#5 (one of the first twentysix out of ninety) acrylic when you first posted the order. Look forward to add this one to the continuing series. J.L. keep up the great work.

You need to slow down your acrylic issues J.L. I can barely make my mortgage payment this month. By the way, I just pulled number 5/45 out of my mailbox.

Got mine yesterday. I already have an order in for the next one too!

Very cool to have something that was melted and blasted by a Saturn V F-1 engine.

I received number 35 of 45 yesterday in the mail and I, too, cannot wait for the next ones to become available. It is neat having a piece of space history in a collection. Please keep up the great work at Retro Space and keep posting new ones on collectSPACE, the best space website there is!!! Thank you.

LC-39 acrylic #6 also arrived yesterday, and I am very impressed with it. I particularly like that there is a tiny hole in the middle of the fragment (almost like a pinhole) which lets the light shine through. It makes this acrylic very pleasing to my eyes.

Wow, LC-5 acrylic 19/90 just hit my mailbox in Georgia. I don't remember seeing an explanation of exactly what the artifact is. I scored the "type one" edition which contains a solid metal rod with a slight radius.

J.L., can you enlighten me? Thanks!

I received LC#5 (type 1) acrylic today. It is #3 and it looks great. I am also curious to find out where this piece is from. I can't wait to see what you have coming out next. As always, keep up the great work!
