Does anyone know how one could obtain John C. Houbolt autograph, I trust he is alive and well (searches indicate his birth of 1919, but no death), I would like to have his signature on a copy of his famous November 15, 1961 memo to Dr. Robert C. Seamans, in fact it would be neat to have Seamans autograph as well. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated thank you

From what I know, Houbolt is still alive and living in a retirement home in Maine.

I do have his address, but the owner of this message board does not wish that we do post addresses here online.

Houbolt signs items sent to him.

Good luck!

Jurgen,

The last time I talked to him, Houbolt was in VA. A couple of my classmates interviewed Seamens on the LOR decision last year. Dr. Seamens is still in MA. I saw him a few times in the last year.
