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. |

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 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. |

Amazingly, after all these years of collecting, I still haven’t been able to find an Evans action photo. A few years back, I had the chance to get an unpersonalized EVA shot, but I was in the middle of buying an Armstrong WSS and had to pass. I’ve regretted it ever since.I’m hoping someone out there might be able to help me track down a signed 8x10 Ron Evans unpersonalized 8x10 photo showing some action (a launch, EVA, the Moon, Saturn V, Earth—anything like that). I’m not looking for WSS or crew shots. If anyone has one they’d be willing to part with—or even point me toward—I’d be incredibly grateful. It would truly mean a lot. |

Still hoping to find a signed, unpersonalized 8x10 Ron Evans "action" photo — something from his EVA, launch, orbit, Earth/Saturn V, etc. (Not looking for Covers, WSS or crew portraits.)To help make it happen, I'm offering a signed in blue unpersonalized 8x10 Gene Cernan "John Wayne" Moon pose, inscribed "Last Man to Walk on the Moon," plus a cash fee on top for the right Evans piece. If you have one — or know someone who might —I’d be truly grateful to hear from you. Thanks so much!
