Does anyone have a source for event covers commemorating the International Space Station and the Expeditions? I'm thinking of cacheted covers, perhaps with the various Expedition patches as the artwork.

Thanks,
Steve

Thanks a bunch,

Steve--My company does have an assortment of ISS-related cover events, even going back to the start of the program. There are various cachets (i.e. program logos, Expedition crew pics, rubber stamps, etc.) most in the price range within $1.50 to $3.00 or so. Let me know if interested in seeing any of them.

Lollini also sells ISS covers. They are particularly interesting since most are from the Russian side including Progress launches, dockings etc as well as Soyuz launches, dockings etc. Postmarks are normally Baikonour for launches and Baikonour or Moscow for dockings etc. Some covers have up to 3 postmarks. They are a little expensive but would make a nice addition to a Shuttle collection. I would also think that something from the Russian side would be required for an exhibit on the ISS.
