(Note: my camera made all three of these look a little dingy, but they are all in fact bright and clear.)
  • Apollo 13 crew-signed launch cover.

    As you can see below, it has both a Haise autopen and a genuine Haise autograph. It also has an autopen of Paul Weitz, who was at KSC on the day of that launch to speak with the crew during the countdown.

    A cover signed by the full crew, postmarked on the first anniversary of their splashdown, sold last year for $584. While the cachet of this cover shows and names all three astronauts, I understand that the two autopens are not lovely bonuses, so the price on this one is $350.

  • SOLD Apollo 17 crew-signed cover postmarked the day that Cernan and Schmitt, the last Apollo lunar explorers, left the moon. $350.

  • I also have an Apollo 17 crew litho signed by Cernan and Evans for sale. It has autopens of all three crew members.

    I bought it years ago because it was inscribed "To Steven", and I hoped that Schmitt would sign it for me some day. A couple of months ago he was to attend an event in DC. It took me almost two hours to drive into town, find parking, and walk to the hotel. I'm not whining - I just thought it was incredible that after all that he and I arrived at the door at the exact same SECOND, with nobody else around. Honestly the best-timed thing I've ever mostly-accidentally ever done. I politely asked if he could sign it, and he politely said no. I said, "I understand. Have a nice evening" and that was it. Looks like this one ain't getting completed, so it can be yours for only $75.

Shipping for each item is another $6 for Priority Mail.

All times are CT (US)
