I would like to buy really anything flown on STS-134 or STS-135. It doesn't have to be a bookmark. Please e-mail me if you can part with one.

Thank You.

I don't know if it is what you are looking for, but Donnis Willis has a Flown STS-135 Provisions Card up for auction on eBay.

Yeah, I know, but I really don't like bidding. Thanks though.

I did get a piece flown on STS-135, but I am still looking for STS-134.

Can you share what you acquired from STS-135? Just curious as to types of items that are circulating from the final space shuttle mission...

  • bookmark
  • gold seal ("Program Manager's Commendation")
  • Robbins medal

Anything else circulating?

Robert, what has been circulating for STS-134? Also, or they rarer than STS-135?

I know it doesn't help much, but they get listed on eBay from time-to-time. I don't know of any retail listings at the moment.

I have a flown Shuttle Commemorative pin 1981-2011 from STS-135 given to me by Mike Zolotorow. Needless to say, its one of my most cherished possessions. Godspeed Mike.

That pin was flown on STS-135? Or an unknown mission?

Key words are "contains metal flown aboard a space shuttle mission". The entire pin did not fly on a mission and most likely the minuscule amount of flown metal included in the pin did not fly on STS-135.

According to the STS-135 OFK, pins of that design did not fly on Atlantis (though it is possible that the crew carried them in their PPKs, which is why I asked Joe).

The pin I pictured was made using metal flown on an earlier flight. (The mission is known, but NASA chose not to make it public.)

Does anyone have an idea of the year the shuttle mission was with the flown metal? Is it that same used in the Winco coins and pins?

It is the same metal as Winco has used in its other shuttle products for NASA. The space agency has decided not to release the mission information so that the flown material can represent all shuttle flights.

Still looking for STS-134. The STS-135 provisions card is awesome. It is for the ISS Food Warmer.

Please check flown cargo identification cards at Lunar legacies: this one is for STS-134 for $55. You will also find some there for STS-135 and STS-133.

I really hope you get something flown from STS-134!

Don't forget covers and letters carried on board STS-135 between ISS and earth. Details are given here.
