Not being very adept with the computer, I hesitated at attempting my own web page. But having just completed my moonwalker collection, I thought now was the time to try. If you'd care to take a look, the address is
http://e4tr.home.attbi.com

It's not very fancy and probably will never get any fancier. Still, all comments and criticisms are welcome.

Ed:

Very nice. Some different moon shot photos that you don't see much of. I was wondering what is inscribed on the last photo and who signed it?

Thanks for looking. The inscription reads, "America's challenge of today has forged man's destiny of tomorrow," and is signed by Gene Cernan. The words are among Cernan's last from the moon. This is one of my favorite pieces and was obtained at the Cernan signing at Novaspace a year or so ago.

Great collection,

You have ALL moonwalkers' signatures ...
The NASA litho of SCHMITT standing near the USA flag is in fact a MIRROR-image of the REAL photo as NASA tried to have a photo with the familiarview of the USA-flag ...
I think most collectors are also interested in seeing Your closet with books or models if You have one ... It's always great seeing other collectors' stuff ...

I didn't know that about the Schmitt photo, interesting. I can't take credit for the design of the web page -- the template was provided by my ATT cable server. As far as I can determine, all I can do is add additional photos, and I don't want to stray from the "moonwalker" theme. If I ever do find a way to somehow partition the page, I'll certainly add other photos and space related items to the site.

The original photo of Geologist Harrison Schmitt standing near the flag has NASA photo-number = AS17-134-20382 ...
Not convinced the litho is a Mirror-image in order to make the "Stars&Stripes" look more familiar ? Try to read the text United States on the Lunar Modules Descent stage just next to Schmitt's arm ...
