I’d like to invest in a nice flown artifact from the Apollo era, preferably from one of the nine lunar flights. The kinds of item I would be interested in would be intact beta cloth, flown flags (an Irish flag would be of particular interest) and checklist pages.

If you have anything that might fit the build please drop me an email!

Suggest you take a look at Artifact Cloud. Florian has a number of Apollo 15 flown checklist pages.

I do have an Apollo 15 flown Irish flag but I have no desire to sell it (unless it will get me a ride on a Virgin Galactic flight ).

I was looking at a Florian’s Apollo 15 checklist pages and while they’re very cool, I’m more interested in an item that is inscribed as flown.

If that Apollo 15 flag should ever become a burden to you let me know! 😅

Gareth, it'd be handy to have a rough idea of your budget.

Up to about $3k would be my max!

We have some Apollo 12 flown maps at Moonpans. And also some Apollo 12 flown schematics (not yet on the site).

I have presumably flown artifacts from Apollo Flight 202. AS-202 these are the 9 PSA trays that are stamped "Flight 202." I will be parting these out. I have many flight spares from the early Apollo missions. I own the world's only fully functioning Block 2 Apollo Guidance Computer. I own two Apollo LMAEs. Everything is for sale.

While accurate to state your AGC is functional (and you have a very nice artifact), there are other functional AGC which exist in institutions and within (additional) private hands. One of them has been lotted for sale in the upcoming RR auction.

Moonpans also just added an Apollo 12 flown checklist page that is signed and inscribed as flown by Dick Gordon.
