Can anyone give me information about the new Cernan signing policy. I sent Mr. Cernan a check and picture over two months ago and have yet to recieve a reply. Any information will be helpful.

Dear Collectors,

Gene Cernan has not stopped signing, rather he has stopped taking mail requests. Since he has had a close relationship with us for years, he has asked that we handle his autograph requests. He will still honor free autograph requests for (his) books sent to him, provided they are personalized and one per person. Of course you should provide return shipping. Don't send money, stamps, or PRCs, make it easy on him. Send a pre-paid container he can just drop in the mail.

We have been sent his unopened mail, and will return goods and money soon.

This should actually be better for you, as we can coordinate the autographs in a more efficient and timely manner, with no change in basic price. Captain Cernan, as with most Apollo astronauts, keeps a hectic schedule, and would like to reserve time at home for his family and some quiet relaxation at his ranch in Kerrville.

We're working on setting a date for a public 30th anniversary booksigning in November. Jack Schmitt has also expressed an interest in attending, also. We will probably have a signing then, so send stuff to us when we make the announcement (you'll need to be on our e-mail
list).

Be sure to see the
Cernan Garage Sale

Thanks. Don't hate us.
