I saw Duane "Digger" Carey give a talk in St. Paul, MN tonight. Great talk, by the way. Afterwards, he signed my lithograph. He must have realized after signing that the ultra-fine Sharpie he was using wasn't the greatest, because he switched to a standard fine tip to write the date. |

While we were in Titusville for the Falcon Heavy launch we hit the consignment shops in the area. In doing that we found this print for United Space Alliance. There is some light printing that speaks to a "new era in Space Shuttle Operations." The far right signature is Glynn Lunney, USA's Vice President. The one on the left is Jim (James) Adamson, STS-28 and STS-43 mission specialist and the first COO of United Space Alliance. Finally, the middle is Kent M. Black, the first CEO of United Space Alliance.  |

I purchased a set of autopenned Apollo lithographs on eBay about a year ago and went through them just recently. I was surprised to find original signed business suit portraits of, Ed White, Walt Cunningham, Phil Chapman, Jim Lovell, Clifton Williams and Donald Holmquest.This is such a pleasant surprise as I did not have White, Williams or Holmquest in my collection. |

After a few years wait for availability, I finally received my Alan Bean autographed paint brush. Novaspace/Astronaut Central did a great job with the display.  |

Today the family and I went to the USA Science & Engineering Festival Expo at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in DC. We met Astronaut Jessica Meir and she signed the STEM First Day Covers that I picked up from the USPS at the STEM Expo and we also got a group photo. |

A signed photo of Jeff Ashby, Piers Sellers, George Zamka, and Drew Feustel on the USS Harry S. Truman. Seller knew who two of the four were, and while I was wrong on who I thought Ashby was (had to look up who was on the mission patch he's wearing), it's a neat piece because it's a candid photo, and I didn't have a candid or portrait of Ashby when I met him; Ashby signed the Red and Rover print instead.Plus, I had to do some detective work to find out when the photo was taken. Turns out there's a Navy photo of Ashby on the Harry S. Truman, with three indistinct astronauts in the background - and Ashby is signing a similar photo. |

Thanks to the recent Lunar Legacies auction, I have managed to fill out my collection of moonwalkers on the moon, most if not all are NASA lithos, with the addition of a John Young and an Alan Shepard. Only leaves me Neil Armstrong to find. And that will likely be quite awhile mainly for the cost. To finish out my WSS lithos, I need a Jim Irwin, also likely beyond my reach.I did make a very nice find on eBay with a signed copy of "Into that Silent Sea" signed by Francis French, Colin Burgess, Dee O'Hara, Wally Funk, and Curt Newport. In beautiful condition. Not yet received, but bought a signed copy of Gherman Titov's "I Am Eagle." It was on the old Boggs' Holy Grails list of signed space books and I had been looking for years. |

I had Al Worden sign this at Spacefest IX. I brought along a labeled diagram of the SIM Bay, and had him number the assorted instruments in the picture, and then write down what they were on the side. The picture is 11" X 14". |

Dr. Harrison Schmitt signed my copy of "Return to the Moon" after his talk last night in Pensacola. He is an excellent speaker and I enjoyed the talk. |

I picked up a copy of "We Have Capture" signed by Tom Stafford at my local used book store for $7.95. It's inscribed, but at that price, I really don't care.Next week, I'm going to grab some more Charlie Duke and Rusty Schweickart autographs. I have plenty of both of them already, but am looking for large photos with long quotes. |

A few members may recall that some months ago I sold a classic 20x16 Conrad/Surveyor signed print while at the same time looking for the same image... only smaller and with a familiar inscription. I had a project in mind and finally managed to complete it last month. |

Several, or was it many, years ago I heard Gen. Engle give a great talk on the X-15 at the National Air and Space Museum and afterward from the second floor balcony we looked at the X-15 to relive and dream about his experience. One of the better talks I've heard at the museum. It really brought the X-15 to life. |

Recently won in an eBay auction a signed space-flown cover for the 1993 TM-17 "Altair" French long-duration mission to Mir. It has three cosmonaut signatures, and one from the French "spationaut." My first Russian flown philatelic cover.  |
