Hello CSers! I've been lurking here for a few months and figured I'd be a lurker forever (you guys know so much you intimidate the heck out of me.) I've been a book collector for a long time, mostly mysteries, some science fiction. A few years ago I sort of fell into collecting signed books about the US Space programs. Anyway, cutting to the chase: I picked up a copy of First on the Moon at a local used bookstore this weekend. Nothing special, just a reading copy. When I started reading it tonight, this 3 x 5 card fell into my lap. After lurking here, I know better than to get too excited about this, so would you kind folks please tell me if this is something special, or just a bookmark?

I'm not the best authority here on Armstrong signatures, but my one word to you would be congratulations! Everything about it looks quite okay to me.Colin |

Congrats! I love stories like this. What a nice Christmas present. Keep reading the book. Maybe you'll find a Apollo 11 crew signed litho!Dave |

Thanks guys! I can't tell you what a feeling this is! I'll probably never get so much for $2.00 again in my life. Happy Holidays to all of you. |
