I am selling my two last items signed by Vladimir Ilyushin, one of the "ghost" cosmonauts. I could contact Ilyushin in 2009 with the help of Russian journalist Alexander Chizhenok. I can provide a copy of my emails with him.

Asking $250 free shipping Contact me by email.

Is a "ghost cosmonaut" an unflown cosmonaut?

No, it's urban legend cosmonaut, like faking the moon landings. Ilyushin was a real test pilot but got caught up in a convoluted conspiracy theory about his preceding Gagarin into space.
