As you can tell, this framed space shuttle Columbia picture still brand new and in plastic. There are no markings on it besides the inventory number but I have no way of knowing where it was bought. It's quite large and the frame is nice.

I'm unsure if this was something that was mass manufactured or a collector's item. I can take more pics if necessary. I am looking to sell it but have no idea where to start. Any help in assessing value would be appreciated!

The photo is a very common one of Columbia landing at EAFB. The framing is not one I've seen, but it's not the kind of thing that I hunt for. Maybe another member can help out further.

If it were me, I'd take a punt at selling it on eBay with a 99 cent start, and let the market determine.

In my estimation, it doesn't appear to be anything particularly rare, valuable, or highly sought - just unusual.

Good luck...

Pre-SILTS. I'd buy it, for the right price.

No less than $45 plus shipping as a reserve.

Thank you all, I appreciate the advice! I will probably try to sell it locally first since the shipping is going to be a pain. I'll try eBay after that. I was hoping to get at least 100 out of it, but it looks like I was a bit over zealous.
