Saw this laminated card on eBay and was wondering about its origins... Is this a cS approved product?

It is not. I emailed the seller earlier this morning to learn of its source (and to inform him it is a fraud). Once I hear back, and if he doesn’t do so himself, I will file with eBay to have the auction ended and removed.

Obviously Dupont and NASA sanctioned this presentation as their logos are also included.

Asked where he obtained these, the seller replied:
At a Flea Market in Florida, near Plant City. They had a couple dozen of them, and I bought 6 at $10.00 each.
The auction has now been ended by the seller.

Hmmm... Robert, perhaps a whole new business line for cS. The collectSPACE Gift Shop. Look out Jeff Bezos.

May not be a bad idea, I wouldn’t buy if it wasn’t cS approved! In all honesty, where would you find a greater wealth of knowledge??

We had a store, buySPACE, that ran from about 2005 through 2007, which offered both retail collectibles and unique memorabilia. Several considerations resulted in our having to move away from that business and it is no longer an option.
