Does anyone have a copy of the "Limited Autograph Marine Corp Edition" of the 1962 book, "John H Glenn Astronaut" by Philip Pearce and Karl Schuon?

If so, could you share a photograph of the red and white striped autograph page, please? It's the page opposite the USMC crest. Thanks!

I do not have a copy, but the first author's name is Pierce.

I have a regular copy of this book. I was fortunate to have it signed by both John and Annie Glenn, many years ago at a small event in Washington DC.

Heritage Auctions sold a copy of the Limited Autograph Marine Corps Edition "with facsimile signatures by the authors." Here is the red and white page:

I do have a copy with the red and white page with the facsimile signatures. Glenn signed it for me as well. I did not realize this was a special edition. By the way, there is a copy for sale on eBay at the moment.
