I am looking to purchase a signed 8x10 Ron Evans signed photo. If anybody has a uniscribed photo available to sell I would be very interested, any action photo like a launch, moon, Saturn V or earth would be really great. (I am not interested in any WSS or crew photos.) Thanks. |

The best I can offer is an Evans signed postal cover. |

I have one I'd consider parting with. Contact me off line, if you're interested. |

Astro-Auction was selling items from the Evans collection a few years ago and the only uninscribed photos of Ron were a couple of business suits. I've never seen any other solo pix. It would be in five figures anyway. |

Five figures? You've gotta be kidding. At that price I'd consider selling my uninscribed Evans WSS. |

Five figures is way out of my pay scale. That said, has anybody a inscribed photo they would consider selling (but has to be unpersonalized)? |

Normally, inscribed = personalized. |

I paid over $11K for an uninscribed and unpersonalized Irwin WSS litho in 2000. It's the only one I've ever seen. |

I have seen two signed EVA photos for sale in the last year. One was from a cS member for around $950 and another from a dealer for approx $1500. Both were unpersonalized but at the time I didn't have the cash.Since Kim posted his comment I have received a email from a seller trying to offer me a signed Evans for $10000. I had to decline. |

Boy someone jumped right on that $10000 quote to try and sell it didn't they! I hope they were joking with you a little bit.

I am talking about an uninscribed, unpersonalized, signed NASA WSS Litho. Evans — never seen one. Irwin, I have the only one I've seen, and it cost me plenty.We sold several Evans EVA photos at Astro-Auction for a few hundred each. |

I have an Evans uninscribed, unpersonalized NASA WSS litho. Not worth anywhere near $10K. |

I'd like to see that Evans WSS. Even his wife and daughter had never seen one. |

Not sour grapes, but I don't like the signature. |

Well I purchased it off Gerry Montague, and his integrity is without question. I'm certain it is authentic. I also remember one example being sold in the last space RR Auction.
Gerry has also sold another to my knowledge. |

Yes, Gerry has integrity, but he's not infallible. None of us are. (The RR page was a 404, but I believe you) one of them is certainly authentic. But this really IS the first WSS I've seen unpersonalized. I stand corrected. |

On the trail of the apocryphal uninscribed Evans here is mine. Not sure of source and no, a personalisation has not been removed.  |

I'm not trying to compete with you, but I'm also looking for an Evans EVA photo. I don't care if it's inscribed or not. What I don't want is a date on the photo other than the date the photo was taken. |

I also have an unpersonalized Evans on a photo that I took through the TV during his EVA. I won't tell you how many times I've kicked myself for not asking for a signed litho. I'd like to buy one myself, but I can't see spending that kind of money on something I already sort of have. |

I am still looking to purchase a unpersonilized Ron Evans signed 8x10 Apollo photo. I do not require a WSS, BS or crew photo. I would like a launch, moon, space, etc., photo if possible. Thanks to all for your help in advance. |
