Author	Topic: FS: Sieger stamps (a real Armstrong under $100?!)
spaceflori Member Posts: 1539 From: Germany Registered: May 2000	posted 04-08-2024 01:04 PM As some of you may have heard Hermann Sieger, the well-known German stamp dealer who initiated the Apollo 15 flown covers and the signed stamp blocks that later caused controversy and did the possibly first commercial signing with astronauts (in fact the only commercial signing Neil Armstrong ever did...) got liquidated in February 2024 after a 100 year long company history. We were fortunate to secure a couple of his treasures including the sets of 20 signed stamps blocks: At roughly $2000 for 20 signed stamp blocks that's an incredible deal of less than $100 each including Swigert, Armstrong, Eisele, Scott, Conrad and all the other famous names! Only very few sets are left — we also offer the stamp blocks individually in our shop.

On average it is therefore less than $100. (However, in reality it was probably at least half the set's price). If I'd had $2000 available I would have snapped it up.
