I may be interested in purchasing an unsigned official NASA Armstrong WSS lithograph. I've tried looking around the web, but have only been finding signed examples in my searches, so I'm really not certain what to expect for a price. It may be that even unsigned examples are more than I'm desiring to pay, but if you have one in good condition that you're willing to part with, please email me with your asking price.

I have the non-smiling version that I would trade you for a signed shuttle astronaut litho that I don't have. You probably have doubles of some shuttle astronauts. Fair?

I'd likely do that trade, but I'm not actually a litho collector and only have a couple of them. The only one I have signed by a shuttle astronaut is Chris Hadfield on a CSA litho. I'm looking for the Armstrong to use in a framed presentation I'm wanting to put together.

If this swap doesn't work out, I have an unsigned one and the Hadfield litho does interest me... — Larry

I can possibly get a scan of the Hadfield tonight. If MarylandSpace isn't interested in this trade, I will let you know, Larry. Thanks!

Would a crew Apollo 11 litho work as an alternative? — Mike

I have a set of 12 Apollo 11 NASA lithos available. Asking 40.00 for the set (plus shipping).

Garry (MarylandSpace) and Larry, below is the Chris Hadfield CSA litho I referenced above. It's in the condition I received it in through the mail from the CSA.

Overall very nice, but the top corners aren't perfectly sharp (although not bad in the least bit) and there is a slight mark along the top border from a paperclip the CSA used to attach a card to the litho. Otherwise, very sharp.

I'm not really sure if this is an even trade, or if it would be lopsided one way or the other, as I don't specifically collect lithos or shuttle astronaut autographs, so others can chime in if they want.

Mike, I wasn't really looking for an Apollo 11 crew litho, and I wouldn't use it in what I'm putting together, but since you brought it up, what would you be asking for it?

Chris, thanks for the offer. I'm not looking to add a large amount of lithos to my collection, but perhaps someone else is interested.

Hey there neighbor, Spacey. I saw you are looking for an Armstrong litho. I have one for you. And from one collector to another... it's free!!

I had several at one time, but have two left. It is the JSCIL-301 official NASA litho. Not the vintage Armstrong litho, but would be just fine for a presentation piece. Let me know, since you only live three blocks or so away I won't charge you shipping! LOL

Well, it's pretty hard for me to argue with free! I'll send you an email and we can arrange for a pickup. Thanks for your generosity! Talk to you soon.

It sounds as if a good thread has come to a successful conclusion. Just another reason I enjoy collectSPACE.
