I'm offering:
  • a large Apollo 17 surface flown schematic that was part of the LM Systems Data manual (manifested as part # SKB32100127-385 serial # 1001). The systems manual was carried in the LM for reference and trouble shooting for the many electrical systems that made up the LM. The schematic is accordion folded to a length of about 36" and a height of 10.5". Formerly from the Gene Cernan collection, the schematic is inscribed and signed by Cernan "Flown to the lunar surface in the Valley of Tarurus-Littrow. December 1972 Gene Cernan Apollo XVII CDR". Also includes a data and fact sheet authenticating the schematic signed by Cernan.

    Asking $5175 or reasonable offers.

  • a two page microfilmed bible segment flown to the lunar surface and signed by Jim Lovell and Edgar Mitchell. The segment is affixed to a 5.75" X 4.25" certificate presented to Larry McGlynn (no. C3H23) and signed by Rev. Jim Stout. Comes with a COA from RR Auction. The Lovell and Mitchell signatures include their respective mission designations.

    Asking $1,500.

  • a letter signed "A. Einstein". It does not include space related information but it does reference the Mayan script.

    The letter is from Einstein to Professor Gordon V. Allport of Harvard University. The letter is dated June 1, 1937 and is composed in German. The letterhead is from Princeton University. Translated content is as follows:

    Dear Professor Allport:

    A former colleague of mine from the Swiss Patent Office writes to me regarding archeologist Dr. Werner Wolff, who is working on the deciphering of the Maya script and who presently is in Paris as a refugee. Do you believe it would be possible to give this man a field of activity in the United States?

    Much obligated for a kind answer would be

    Yours
    A. Einstein

    Comes with a COA from RR Auction. Asking $4,500 or best offer.
Please email me with questions and requests for photos. — Steve

I am also selling my Moonwalkers print by Ron Lewis. This is signed by 9 of the 12 moonwalkers. It comes with the RR Auction CoA. It is not framed, matted or mounted. It has been stored flat. I'm asking for a best offer over $3,000 (plus shipping). Please feel free to email me with questions or to request scans.
