I have discovered in my collection an Apollo Relay and Diode Module that was made to be a flight spare for CM-012, which was the command module for AS-204 (Apollo 1). What would this be worth?

Also, I have Computer B and the LDAU from the Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) project in my collection. What might these be worth? I have tried to find examples in museums and private collections to no avail. I did find the original cost on them. Both were made by IBM.

Many of the electronics casings from Gemini (if that is what you have) were fabricated from significant amounts of slightly radioactive Thoriated Magnesium. Long term retention of such items in residence necessitates special precautions which must be factored as a net liability from the standpoint of collector interest/desirability.

The Apollo Block I CM similarly used the same material in some of its components to include the Guidance/Navigation electronics trays.
