Please let me know if you are interested in any of the fine autographs below. I'd be happy to e-mail a high-resolution image if you'd like. Shipping is $6 for Priority Mail with tracking. I accept PayPal.

  • SOLD Jim Irwin signed lithograph of him on the lunar surface with inscription "His love from the moon" HANDWRITTEN, not pre-printed. Not personalized. Quite rare in this form! On the verso, tape damage to the margins from previous framing, not showing on the front at all. - SOLD $175

  • Several Apollo astronauts' signatures on an invitation letter to the Apollo 16 launch. Signers are Tom Stafford (Apollo 10), Jack Swigert (Apollo 13), Alan Shepard (Apollo 14, but of course also the first American in space on Freedom 7), Jim Irwin (Apollo 15), Ron Evans (Apollo 17), Vance Brand (Apollo-Soyuz and shuttle). Also George M. Low, 1958 Chief of Manned Space Flight and Manager of the Apollo Spacecraft Program Office; and several other presumably NASA officials. The letter has apparently been trimmed at the top and bottom, not affecting any text or autograph. - $325

  • SOLD Jack Schmitt typed letter signed on his United States Senate letterhead, wishing Congressman Harold Johnson a Merry Christmas in 1979. - SOLD $75

  • Alan Shepard inscribed signed card. Shepard wrote "To Alfred – Space is fantastic!" before a vintage signature. You could matte out the personalization and frame it with an image of his Mercury liftoff or him on the moon. - $150

  • Skylab-2 crew (Conrad, Kerwin, Weitz) signed launch cover with nice cachet showing all three. When I got it, only Conrad and Kerwin had signed it; I mailed it to Paul Weitz who completed it. - $195

  • SOLD Skylab II crew (Bean, Garriott, Lousma) signed beta cloth. - SOLD $225

  • Thomas P. Stafford signed typescript. An excerpt from a Life magazine article about his Apollo 10 experiences. A 1971 First Day of Issue cancellation on "United States in Space… A Decade of Achievement" stamps at top.) - $75

  • STS-1 and STS-2 crews (John Young, Bob Crippen, Joe Engle, and Dick Truly) signed inscribed card. Unusual to see all four of them on one item. - $175

  • Wernher von Braun signed 1961 certificate as Director of the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center. (I know that W looks like his autopen pattern, but the rest of it is quite different.)

  • John Young signed typed letter, thanking a writer for congratulations after Young was assigned to Apollo 16. The second paragraph is about when and where the mission will go. Young's is an uncommon autograph, especially on vintage letters with Apollo content. - $350
