Dear Friends and Collectors:

Welcome to our Fall 2016 Space Exploration Auction with the largest selection of the finest in flown, signed, and collectible Space-related memorabilia we’ve ever offered – 524 lots in total! As always, we want to first thank our consignors, both new and old, for trusting Heritage Auctions with items from their collections. We also want to thank and welcome our bidders, whether this is your first Heritage Space Exploration auction catalog, or your nineteenth. We couldn’t do it without all of you.

Highlights: It’s always difficult to pick just a few pieces to feature, but a good place to start is the front cover of this catalog. We are absolutely “over the moon” (as they say) to be able to offer not just one, but two original Alan Bean paintings. Both of these 24” x 18” space masterworks have very attractive starting bids.

Lot 50037: “Our World At My Fingertips” was commissioned by the late Tom McFadden and completed in 2005. Exhibited at the Butler Institute of American Art in late 2005 and at the Cosmosphere from 2006 until now, this stunning work has never been offered to the public. To quote Alan Bean: “…within this painting are actual particles of the space ship I flew to the moon, some charred black with reentry heat, and minute amounts of moon dust that coated my spacesuit…” How cool is that?!

Lot 50038: “Test Drive” is a much earlier work by Bean, dated 1984. It shows Apollo 17’s Gene Cernan testing the Lunar Roving Vehicle on the moon soon after it is extracted from the Lunar Module Challenger. This has been in a private collection for more than twenty years but now could find a home in your collection. Might I suggest that Lot 50139 would make a great companion piece to this?

Lot 50119: We welcome a new astronaut consignor, Bruce McCandless II, to this catalog. He was a member of the Apollo 14 Support Crew (and a CapCom) and was presented with an LM-flown and surface-carried Brush-Scriber-Lens Tool by Alan Shepard, Edgar Mitchell, and Stuart Roosa upon their return. It has been in his personal collection since the 1971 “pin party.” Don’t miss this one.

Lot 50102: The all-important Apollo 13 CSM Launch Checklist book was prepared and managed by NASA’s Dennis Bentley. Upon the safe return of Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert, the flown copy was signed by the crew and presented to him by Haise. It has been in his collection ever since. Now it can by yours.

Internet Session: This is our largest-ever selection of material in the non-floor session, with more than 350 exciting lots, all starting at a bid of $1.00. Don’t fail to take a careful look at these, many of which would have previously been in our floor sessions. The descriptions are shortened here in the printed catalog to conserve space but you can find full descriptions and additional enlargeable images online at HA.com/6167.

Description Notes: Lots previously owned by astronauts are designated as either “directly” or “originally from the personal collection of...” If an item was taken along on a particular space mission, it is designated as “flown.” If it went to the lunar surface, it is “lunar module flown.” If the astronaut has signed and written on the item itself that it was flown or part of his personal collection, the description will read “signed and certified.” If any type of certificate or letter of authenticity is included with the lot, it will be mentioned in the description.

Autograph Authenticity: Please note that all autographs have been carefully authenticated by both our internal staff as well as our well-respected outside expert Gerard Montague of Astronaut Archives. You can rest assured that we are as serious about authenticity as you are.

Please visit your favorite lots on our award-winning website at HA.com/6167 for additional and enlargeable high-resolution images and, at times, last minute or additional information. We would love to see and meet you in the first floor auction room at our Dallas Headquarters, 3500 Maple Avenue, on November 11th at 11:00 AM (CT). Our Internet Session will start shortly after the end of the Floor Session. If you can’t be here in person, our patented online bidding platform, Heritage Live (HA.com/Live) is the next best thing. Good luck with finding interesting new items for your collection.

Best Regards,

Michael RileyChief Cataloguer and Historian

Session One, Auction #6167 | Friday, November 11, 2016 | 11:00 AM CT 5

Spent fifteen days in space, July 3-19, 1974

50001 Soyuz 14 / Salyut 3 Flown Omega Flightmaster Chronograph Worn by Soviet Cosmonaut Yury Artyukhin, with Original Box. This is a manual wound, 17-jewel, caliber 911 move-ment, steel case 43mm watch; the steel link band has a deployant clasp. Omega made these from 1969-1972; they were developed for and marketed to pilots. Soviet cosmonauts are known to have often wore them on missions. This particular chronograph flew on Soyuz 14 to the military space station Salyut 3 (as engraved on the case back). This was the first successful Soviet mission to a space station and the only one to Salyut 3. Soyuz 14 also brought Artyukhin (and Pavel Popovich) back home. Artyukhin was a highly decorated Soviet cosmo-naut and engineer and was later involved in the development of the Buran shuttle program. This watch was originally purchased at an early Sotheby’s Space auction, Lot 77. General wear, not tested. Rare original Flightmaster box included. From the Estate of Malcolm S. Forbes.Starting Bid: $900

Spent 184 days in space, June 5 - December 7, 2002

50002 International Space Station Expedition 5 Flown Watch from Russian Flight Engineer Sergey Treshchov, with Full Documentation. This Casio men’s model W42H-1AV (module 2265) Illuminator digital resin strap sport watch (40mm) is water resistant and features a lighted dial and day/date functions. It was worn by Treshchov from the time he left earth on Space Shuttle Endeavour (STS-111) until the time he returned, also on Endeavour (STS-113), six months later. Expedition 5 was the fifth long-duration stay on the I.S.S. The crew, which also included Commander Valery Korzun and Flight Engineer Peggy Whitson, carried out twenty-five new experiments and contin-ued various others started by previous crews. Included is a 7” x 5” color photo of Treshchov wearing the watch, a handwritten letter in Russian from him confirming that this is the watch he wore on the mission bearing the proper official I.S.S. stamps, as well as a NASA Certificate of Authenticity for the watch signed by him. Also included is an RR Auction COA. A rare opportunity to own such a well-documented flown watch. Fine.Starting Bid: $900

Rare early moon photos from 1965

50003 NASA’s Ranger IX Photographs of the Moon Photographic Edition Portfolio. Published by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, December 15, 1965. An abso-lutely amazing collection of 170 high-resolution photographs of the lunar surface taken by the Ranger IX spacecraft in March 1965. They are all printed on 10.75” x 13.75” glossy photographic paper, linen-backed, numbered, and neatly filed in a snap-close custom case along with a softbound book that imparts details on the mission and these images. This Ranger lunar probe was equipped with six television vidicon cam-eras designed to transmit photos to earth up until the very moment of impact with the moon at which time the resolution was an amazing 12”. These 170 images, seventy from Camera A, eighty-eight from Camera B, and twelve from the P Cameras, were hand-selected from the more than 5800 photos transmitted during the last nineteen minutes of flight. Ranger IX was the final flight in this project with the goal of obtaining the first close-up images of the moon. These same images were also published in 1966 in a softcover book edition which is easily obtainable. This, the Photographic Portfolio Edition, is quite rare and desirable. Total weight approximately seventeen pounds. Photos and book very fine, case shows some soiling and wear.Starting Bid: $750

Mercury spacecraft drawn by its designer

50004 Max Faget Signed Drawing of Project Mercury’s “Big Joe” Capsule. An 8.5” x 11” trans-parent sheet with a basic drawing (4” x 6.25”) in black felt tip of a space capsule ac-complished by its designer who has signed “Max Faget” to the side. Above, he has written: “Big Joe” and below: “Mold Lines Feb 1959/ Fligt [sic] Date Scheduled Aug 59/ Fligt [sic] Date Achieved Sept 59”. Max Faget was the de-signer of the Mercury space-craft and contributed to the designs of Gemini, Apollo, and the Space Shuttle. The flight of “Big Joe” occurred on September 9, 1959. Its purpose was to test the ablative heat shield that would be used on the manned Mercury missions. A very rare original sketch by an important member of the American space program’s design team. Excellent. From the family collection of the late Tom McFadden.Starting Bid: $350

Beautifully signed by the men with the “Right Stuff”

50005 Mercury Seven Astronauts Signed Book (By All): We Seven by The Astronauts Themselves. (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1962). First edition, first printing.

A wonderful book in the astronauts’ own words, published just after Scott Carpenter’s voyage on Aurora 7 in 1962. A very desirable and historical signed volume. Hardbound in an unclipped ($6.50) dust jacket, octavo, 352 pages, il-lustrated. A small stain at top edge and a ½” tear on top back of jacket. Binding tight and pages bright. Fine.

This book was donated to a public library and the proceeds will go to-ward that library’s support.Starting Bid: $2,500

50006 Mercury Seven Astronauts: Schirra’s Space Book Signed by Five. (Boston: Quinlan Press, 1988). By Walter M. Schirra with Richard N. Billings. First edition, first printing. Signed on the half-title page: “To Ken-/ Gordon Cooper”, “To Ken - with best regards—/ John Glenn”, “Best wishes-/ Wally Schirra”, “To Ken/ From # 1—-!/ Alan Shepard”, and “D K Slayton”. An interesting and possibly unique group of signatures for this book. Hardbound in a dust Jacket (enclosed in clear, acid-free protector), octavo, 227 pages, illustrated. Fine.Starting Bid: $400

Baseball signed by the first two Americans in space

50007 Mercury Seven Astronauts: Baseball Signed by Four in-cluding Shepard and Grissom. A Spalding Official National League baseball (Warren Giles) signed on one panel “Gus Grissom” and “Wally Schirra” and on another “Scott Carpenter” and “Alan Shepard”, all in blue ink. This is a stel-lar grouping that includes: the first two Americans in Space (Shepard and Grissom); the second American to orbit the Earth (Carpenter); and the only man to fly in Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions (Schirra). Originally from the estate of Fred “Dixie” Walker, the only man to share a dugout with both Babe Ruth and Jackie Robinson. The ball bears a thin coating of shellac. Rare and desirable. Fine.Starting Bid: $450

Rarely offered, in amazing condition

50008 Mercury-Era Goodrich Mark IV Full Pressure Suit Helmet, as Used in the Film The Right Stuff, Complete with Oxygen Hose, Communications Cable, and Case. A fabulous example of this desir-able helmet, a slightly-modified version of which was worn by the Mercury astronauts. Everything is in working order: regulator, head-phones, microphone, and head size netting adjustment. Even the rub-ber face seal is intact and not damaged. Printed markings inside read: “Headpiece, MK IV Mod 2/ Full Pressure Suit/ Type III/ Mfg’d by the B. F. Goodrich Co./ Date Mfg’d 11 63/ Contract No. N383-82965A/ Bureau of Naval Weapons/ 3848” Handwritten above is: “RH8475-966-5545-LF50”. This particular helmet was purportedly used in the movie The Right Stuff; though we’re not sure which actor wore. This is the very rare white version, and the black sun visor was removed for the movie to more closely resemble the actual Mercury helmets (the visor has since been re-attached). Includes original case. Note that the oxygen hose and communication cord are included but detached. If desired, they can be easily re-attached using the oxygen fitting on the regulator and the four comm. connectors on the back of the helmet. This is exactly the “right stuff” for your Space collection! Helmet in fine condition, case shows wear.Starting Bid: $1,000


50009 NASA Archive of Early Material, Gathered by a Member of the Press. A rare opportunity to bid on a box full of memorabilia gathered by a Mrs. Jacobs who worked for Western Union Press Coverage in Florida and was on hand covering the earliest flights from Cape Canaveral. A particu-larly appealing lot for the Space historian or philatelist. There is too much to enumerate or photograph, but the listings below will give you an idea of what’s included.

Alan Shepard: A binder full of original vintage material, including the following: an 8” x 10” NASA color litho print, the business suit pose, signed in blue ink “Alan B Shepard Jr”; approximately two dozen period newspaper clippings relating to his flight; separate Alan and Louise Shepard typed letters signed in facsimile; and twenty-five 8” x 10” B&W glossy photos. These photos trace his mission from planning stages to splashdown and res-cue, 1960-1961. Particularly interesting are a series of six photos taken from the helicopter as Shepard is being hoisted up from his floating Freedom 7 space capsule. Photos very fine or better, most time-stamped and all with printed or glued captions on the verso. Newspaper articles are lightly toned.

Gus Grissom: An amazing archive of vintage material housed in another binder, includes the following: a handwritten and signed 1961 letter on Project Mercury letterhead from Betty Grissom thanking Mrs. Jacobs for a photo she sent; twelve original and never-published 3.5” x 5” color snap-shots taken at the MR-4 press conference, several showing Grissom, Shepard, or James Webb; an original “Spacecraft Communications” transcript dated July 21, 1961; a telegram from LBJ to Grissom reading, in part “It was ‘Go Gus’ all the way today!”; several period newspaper articles; telegrams from Mrs. Jacobs to her family regarding the launch; and forty-five incredible 8” x 10” B&W glossy NASA photos, all with printed captions on the verso. These photos are all dated in July 1961 and cover Grissom as he prepares for the mission through to him on the recovery ship. Photo numbers range from 61-MR4-10 to 61-MR4-107. An amazing collection; many of these images are not familiar to us. All photos very fine or better, other material fine. Unmanned Launch Covers: Approximately eighteen launch covers dated between August 25, 1961, and March 21, 1965, several with real photo ca-chets, including the following: Saturn C-1, Patrick AFB, October 27, 1961; Discoverer No. 34, Vandenberg AFB, November 5, 1961; Ranger II, Patrick AFB, November 18, 1961; Titan, Patrick AFB, January 30, 1962; Tiros IV, Patrick AFB, February 8, 1962; Gemini GT-1, Cape Canaveral, April 8, 1964; Gemini GT-2, Cape Canaveral, January 19, 1965; and Ranger 9, Cape Canaveral, March 21, 1965. All fine or better.

Animal Launch Covers: Air Force Mercury Atlas E SPURT, Patrick AFB, November 10, 1961 (failure); and Mercury Atlas 5, Patrick AFB, November 29, 1961 (Enos the Chimp), both with photo cachets. Very fine.

Manned Mission Covers: Approximately seventy-five covers, a combination of launch, recovery, special event, and first day varieties, dated between June 28, 1961, and March 16, 1966, including the following: Liberty Bell 7, July 21, 1961, four different “Ships on Station” cancellations with real photo cachets (quite rare); Freedom 7, February 20, 1962, fourteen launch/ first day and four later special event covers; Aurora 7, May 24, 1962, one launch and two later event covers; Sigma 7, October 3, 1962, twenty-four Orbit launch covers; Faith 7, May 16, 1963, seven Orbit launch covers; Gemini 3, March 23, 1965, eight Orbit launch covers; Gemini 7, December 4, 1965, four Orbit launch covers; and Gemini 8, March 16, 1966, four Orbit launch covers. All fine or better.

Saturn I C-1 Launch: An exceptional group of photos and press material relating to the development and the historic launch of the first test flight, on October 27, 1961, of America’s first heavy-lift space rocket. Fine or better.

Space History: A 2.25” tall stack of original NASA and Cape Canaveral material from the early 1960s. Too much to list individually but a few highlights include: a fabulous 8” x 10” B&W NASA glossy of the chimp Enos; a Cape tourist magazine signed by Shorty Powers; a group of B&W snapshots related to Gordon Cooper’s return to the Cape; twenty or more color astronaut and NASA-related period postcards; several astronaut photos and litho prints; a black-bordered thank you card from Jacqueline Kennedy; and a DoD illustrated book about their support of Gemini 3. Also, a group of miscella-neous personal correspondence, telegrams, some of which is related to collecting early Space covers- price lists, etc. Generally fine or better.Starting Bid: $900


50010 Code 3 (Biltmore) Set of Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo Precision Models (Three) in Unopened Boxes. These are wonderfully-constructed resin models in 1/24 scale, each very detailed inside and out with separate hatch doors and custom stands. Excellent.Starting Bid: $350

Rare “red number” example

50011 Gemini 4: Ed White II Signed Original NASA “Red Number” EVA Color Photo. A 10” x 8” glossy photo (S-65-30431) of the desirable red number variety with “A Kodak Paper” watermark and purple ink cap-tion on the verso. It is beautifully signed in black ink: “Edward H. White II/ 3 June ‘65”. This was America’s first spacewalk. White was scheduled to fly in Apollo 1 on February 21, 1967, but a tragic fire during a “plugs-out” launch simulation on January 27, 1967, claimed the lives of White and his crewmates Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffee. We can’t image a more desirable example of this photo, one of the most iconic images of the space program. Minor surface flaws, nothing detracting though. Very fine. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.Starting Bid: $1,000

Rare original 11 x14 photo

50012 Gemini 4: Ed White II Signed Large EVA Color Photo. An 11” x 14” glossy photo, with the NASA image number S-65-30427 handwrit-ten on the verso along with the “A Kodak Paper” watermark. It shows Ed White performing his spacewalk during the third orbit of the Gemini 4 mission while tied to the spacecraft by an umbilical line. He has boldly signed it in black felt tip: “To Bill—-/ With best personal regards —/ Thanks for your help!/ Edward H. White II/ Gemini IV”. A stunning piece. Excellent. From the family collection of the late Tom McFadden.Starting Bid: $1,000

50013 Wernher von Braun Typed Letter Signed to Jim McDivitt’s Father, with Typed Note Signed by Mr. & Mrs. McDivitt, Sr. A one page 7” x 8” letter on NASA stationery, dated September 29, 1966, to Mr. James A. McDivitt, Sr., signed at close: “Wernher von Braun”. It reads, in full: “I cer-tainly enjoyed the opportunity to meet you and to have the opportunity to chat with you during my very short visit to Jackson and the Midwest Space Fair. Since my return to Washington, I have had the opportunity to talk with Jim, Jr. about my visit to Jackson and you can rest assured he deeply regrets his training commitments prevented his joining us for the event. Mrs. McDivitt and yourself must be terribly proud of that fine young man! Working closely with Jim as I do brings forth nothing but the greatest admiration and respect for the outstanding job Jim has done, and is doing, for this national space effort. He is a great credit to yourself and our nation.” Included with it is an 8” x 11” inch sheet with the following typed words: “The senior McDivitts are pleased to present this original communication from Dr. Wernher Von Braun to their good friend Forrest E. Cook to add to his collection.” Signed: “Margaret M. McDivitt” and “James A. McDivitt Sr.” Cook was a well-known space collector of the pe-riod. Both very fine. From the family collection of the late Tom McFadden.Starting Bid: $350


Flown on the first rendezvous between two manned spacecraft

50014 Gemini 6A Flown Gold-Colored Fliteline Medallion. This 26mm medal was flown aboard Gemini 6A, which per-formed a space rendezvous with Gemini 7 in orbit on the afternoon of December 15, 1965. Onboard were Wally Schirra and Thomas Stafford along with approximately one hundred of these me-dallions. The obverse features the hexagonal mission insignia reflecting the mission number; the spacecraft trajectory also traces out the num-ber “6”. The Gemini 6 spacecraft is shown superimposed on the “twin stars” Castor and Pollux, for “Gemini.” The obverse also has “Schirra” and “Stafford” with the original mission designation “GTA-6” (for Gemini-Titan-Agena). The reverse has the dates of the flight and the revised mission designation “GT-GT-6”. A beautiful example.Starting Bid: $500

50015 Gemini 6A Flown Silver-Colored Fliteline Medallion. This 26mm medal was flown aboard Gemini 6A, which per-formed a space rendezvous with Gemini 7 in orbit on the afternoon of December 15, 1965. Onboard were Wally Schirra and Thomas Stafford. The obverse features the hex-agonal mission insignia reflecting the mission number; the spacecraft trajectory also traces out the number “6”. The Gemini 6 spacecraft is shown superimposed on the “twin stars” Castor and Pollux, for “Gemini.” The obverse also has “Schirra” and “Stafford” with the original mission designation “GTA-6” (for Gemini-Titan-Agena). The reverse has the dates of the flight and the revised mission designation “GT-GT-6”. Lightly tar-nished on both sides, otherwise excellent.Starting Bid: $450

50016 Gemini 6A and Gemini 7 Crews-Signed Rendezvous Color Photo. An 8” x 10” NASA litho print with two images of the historic ren-dezvous between the two spacecraft. A Hungarian stamp celebrating the feat is affixed at top right. Signed by all four in black felt tip: “Tom Stafford”, “Wally Schirra”, “James Lovell”, and “Frank Borman”. Included is an RR Auction COA. Not common. Very fine. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.Starting Bid: $350

50017 Gemini 8 Flown Heat Shield Plug in Clear Display. A seg-ment, approximately 1.25” diameter x 1.75” sealed in a plastic repre-sentation of the spacecraft itself, overall 3” x 5” in size. That is mounted to a triangular-shaped base, 4” x 5.25” overall. Engraved underneath the base is: “Heat Shield of/ Gemini VIII/ 1st Docking In/ Space N. Armstrong/ D. Scott/ March 16, 1966”. This mission did indeed perform the first ever orbital docking, to an Agena Target Vehicle. Unfortunately, while docked, a thruster stuck causing the spacecraft to roll. Even after undocking, it continued to tumble forcing an early end to the mission and a very uncomfortable situation for the astronauts. Some residue on the bottom and a bit of toning, else fine.Starting Bid: $500


“...You were a welcome sight on the Horizon. Neil Armstrong”

50018 Gemini 8 Crew-Signed Note to the Rescue Ship U.S.S. Leonard F. Mason’s Crew with Four Original NASA “Red Number” Color Photos of the Rescue, Directly from the Personal Collection of One of the Ship’s Rescue Swimmers. A 10” x 7” sheet signed as follows in black ink: “To the crew of the Mason—/ with our thanks-You were/ a welcome sight on the Horizon/ Neil Armstrong” and “Dave Scott”. It bears the “Gemini Rendezvous Mission/ Pacific Fleet U.S. Navy Recovery Force” stamp. Also included are four original vintage NASA glossy photos, all of which are of the rare “red number” variety. These show various scenes of the rescue and include images numbered S-66-18602, S-66-26037, S-66-26048, and S-66-26059. A fab-ulous grouping (see following lot also) from one who was there for this dramatic emergency rescue. The pen used for the note was apparently run-ning out of ink as the signatures are lighter than the inscription. Two areas of tape stains from tape mounting on the back, overall very good. Photos have tape-related damage in the margins, very good.

Gemini 8 conducted the first docking, with an Agena Target Vehicle, of two spacecraft in orbit on March 16, 1966. Soon after docking, the combined craft began to roll. Armstrong used the Orbit Attitude and Maneuvering System (OAMS) thrusters to stop the roll but it immediately restarted. They were out of ground communication range at the time. Seeing that the OAMS fuel had dropped precipitously and fearing that the spin rate might cause damage to one or both craft or possibly cause the Agena to explode, Armstrong and Scott decided to undock and evaluate the situation. This caused the Gemini capsule to spin at a faster rate; at one revolution per second, the astronauts’ vision was blurred and they were in danger of pass-ing out so Armstrong decided to shut down the OAMS thrusters and use the Re-entry Control System (RCS) thrusters to stop the spin. They then ran tests and found that the OAMS thruster eight was stuck on. Their use of the RCS dictated, by mission rules, that the flight be aborted. They were due to splashdown in the Atlantic three days later but Mission Control decided to bring them down 500 miles east of Okinawa and have a secondary re-covery ship rescue them. The Leonard F. Mason was dispatched “full steam ahead” to their location and arrived three hours after splashdown, bringing the spacecraft and crew, exhausted and seasick, but happy to be out of the ocean, aboard the vessel. Chester R. Szetela was a rescue swimmer who participated in the rescue; he was also the ship’s assistant publication officer. This lot, and the lot following, comes to us from his collection of memo-rabilia from that day.Starting Bid: $800

50024 NASA Astronaut Group One: “Mercury Seven” Photo Signed by All. A 10” x 8” matte finish B&W photo picturing the first seven astro-nauts chosen by NASA for their Man in Space project. This photo shows the astronauts, in business suits, inspecting a Mercury Atlas model and was taken at Langley Research Center in Virginia.

Scott Carpenter”, “Donald K. Slayton”, and “Leroy G. Cooper, Jr.”. The in-scription at the top right is by Scott Carpenter: “Merry Christmas to Doris/ from the Mercury Astronauts”. A sought-after item for any collection of space autographs. Generally fine condition with minor expected “silvering” and some creasing at the right edge that affects the inscription and the Glenn signature just a bit. The Grissom and Schirra signatures are lighter than the others. Overall fine. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.Starting Bid: $2,500

All members of Group Two as selected in September 1962

50025 NASA Astronaut Group Two: Color Photo Signed on Mat by All Nine, Originally from the Personal Collection of Group Member James McDivitt, in Framed Display, with Signed COA.

Beautifully custom double matted and framed to an overall 19.5” x 23” with Gemini, NASA, and Apollo embroidered patches. Rarely offered, especially this nice and from the collection of a group member. Excellent. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.

This is an amazing group of American heroes and includes the first man on the moon (three moonwalkers total), the first American to walk in space, the commander of the first mission to the moon, and the commander of the first shuttle mission. The “New Nine” signed very few items as a group due to their busy schedules and, as Eliot See died in an early-1966 training accident, none could be obtained after that.

Included with this lot is a signed illustrated Certificate of Authenticity on McDivitt’s personal letterhead stating, in full: “I certify that this NEW NINE autographed photo was signed in person. It is from my personal collec-tion.”Starting Bid: $4,000


All members of Group Three as selected in October 1963

50026 NASA Astronaut Group Three: Color Photo Signed by All Fourteen, in Framed Display, with Novaspace COA. A 13.25” x 8.25” photo of this group, posed in business suits seated at and standing behind a table. Each has neatly signed above or below their image in black ink: “Michael Collins”, “Walter Cunningham”, “Donn Eisele”, “Ted Freeman”, “Dick Gordon”, “Rusty Schweickart”, “Dave Scott”, “C Williams”/ “Buzz Aldrin”, “Bill Anders”, “Charlie Bassett”, “Alan L Bean”, “Gene Cernan”, and “Roger Chaffee”. A particularly tough group to assemble as four of these men died before they could ever fly into space. Theodore Freeman (1964), Charles Bassett (1966), and Clifton Williams (1967) all were killed in plane crashes and Roger Chaffee (1967) per-ished in the tragic Apollo 1 fire. Elegantly custom double matted in suede and framed to an overall 21.5” x 20.5” with Gemini, NASA, and Apollo em-broidered patches. Just the slightest amount of fading on the photo though the signatures are all bold and dark, overall excellent. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.

Of these fourteen heroes, four walked on the moon (including the last), and three others flew to the moon. They represent eighteen space missions in total across the Gemini, Apollo, and Skylab programs.

Included with this lot is a Certificate of Authenticity from Novaspace stating, in full: “I certify that the signatures of The 14 group III astronauts are au-thentic and guaranteed to have been signed in person”.Starting Bid: $3,000

Haise”, “Joe Engle”, “Vance Brand”, “John S. Bull”, and “Bruce McCandless II”. All but two of these men flew into space at least once. John Bull resigned once he learned he was suffering from pulmonary disease and Edward Givens was killed in a 1967 car crash. Another difficult item to find. Various edge roughness and tears would easily mat out. Very fine. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.

Of this group of nineteen, an amazing nine of them flew to the moon including three moonwalkers. All told, this group accounts for twenty-six space missions across the Apollo, Skylab, Apollo-Soyuz, and Shuttle programs.Starting Bid: $800

50036 NASA Mission Control: Insignia Color Photo Signed by Seven Controllers. An 8” x 10” silk finish color photo on Kodak Endura paper of the Robert McCall-designed insignia for the Mission Control team. Boldly signed in black felt tips by seven of the most legendary members of the group: “Gene Kranz”, “Glynn S. Lunney”, “John D Hodge”, “Milton Windler”, “Chris Kraft”, “Jerry Bostick”, and “Gerry Griffin”. These were men who directed America’s manned space missions leading to and in-cluding six successful moon landings. The Latin along the top of the em-blem, “Res Gesta Par Excellentiam,” translates to “Achievement Through Excellence”. A scarce grouping of important signatures. Excellent.

Interestingly, Gene Kranz was chiefly responsible for the creation of this handsome insignia. He discusses it in his book: “Bob McCall, in my belief the premier artist of space, had been sitting on the step to the right of the flight director console, sketching during the final Apollo EVAs. He had designed the Apollo 17 crew patch. When Bob took a break for a cup of coffee, I joined him in the cafeteria... I don’t think Bob was sur-prised when I asked him to design an emblem for the Mission Control team. I spoke emotionally, from my heart and gut, about the control teams and crews, and our life in Mission Control. ‘We fought and won the race in space and listened to the cries of the Apollo 1 crew. With great resolve and personal anger, we picked up the pieces, pounded them together, and went on the attack again. We were the ones in the trenches of space and with only the tools of leadership, trust, and team-work, we contained the risks and made the conquest of space possible.’ Over the next six months, McCall developed the emblem worn proudly by every subsequent generation of mission controller.” (Failure is Not an Option, page 376).Starting Bid: $350


On exhibit at the Cosmosphere since 2006, includes original Letter of Transmittal and Bill of Sale

50037 Alan Bean Original 2005 Painting “Our World At My Fingertips,” Textured Acrylic with Moondust on Aircraft Plywood, Museum Framed. A stunning and unique 23.5” x 17.5” painting of Bean on the moon viewing the whole Earth between the thumb and forefinger of his gloved hand. Beautifully framed to an overall 33” x 28”. This painting was com-missioned by the late Tom McFadden who worked very closely with Bean on the design and execution as noted in Bean’s included letter and Bill of Sale to Tom’s widow, Stacy. It was originally exhibited at the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio. Then, in 2006, it was loaned to The Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, Kansas, where it has been until its ship-ment to Heritage for this auction, as confirmed by the included letter from the Museum President and C.O.O. Jim Remar. On the verso is the story behind the paint-ing, information on the care of this fine piece of art, and an explanation of his techniques and materials including an explanation of his use of Apollo 12 flown materials mixed in with the texturizing compound. A centerpiece for any Space or Art collection. Excellent. From the family collection of the late Tom McFadden.

Alan Bean gives the background as follows: “Looking up at the Earth, I could see my home 240,000 miles away. I moved into my spacecraft¹s shadow to get a better view without squinting. It was a brilliant blue and white world floating in a shiney black sky. From this great distance, the collective problems of an entire planet are small beyond recognition. If there really are angels, is this the view they see? Reaching up, I bal-anced the Earth between my gloved thumb and fore-finger. Our world, the whole earth was safely cradled in my fingertips.

“Looking down at the Moon, the crisp gray dust was a perfect pallet to contrast earth. From a distance, Monet might have painted our planet as a bril-liant blue blur. Some truly great paintings are best appreciated that way.

“At first, it may seem I have painted my right finger incorrectly, not pointing at the Earth. Not so. I have purposely painted it a little lower and to the right of the Earth due to the effect of parallax.

“How small our Earth is in the infinite universe. Someday, when future explorers look back from Mars, our precious home will be but a dim star. Our planet may be small but we are fortunate indeed. Consider the fact that with all the millions of telescopes humans have created and used, and all the hundreds of space probes we¹ve rocketed out into the universe, Earth is still the most beautiful world we have ever seen. How lucky we are!”

Alan Bean’s Letter of Transmittal to Tom McFadden’s widow, dated July 1, 2006, reads as follows: “It is with joy and a little sadness I send this painting to you. Tom and I liked it so much, as did the viewers at the Butler Museum in Youngstown, Ohio. He did so much to make the painting what you see now. My folder is packed with e mails, photos, computer generated images, sketches that he sent to me when we were creating the painting together. What you see is more Tom than Alan...” Included is his handwritten Bill of Sale for $43,179.53 as well as his hand-notated transparency and photo. Also, a group of rough sketch copies (one original) from McFadden’s files. Interestingly, the original working title was “Our World In My Hands.”

Also included with this lot is a letter from the Cosmosphere dated August 31, 2016. It reads as follows: “The ‘Our World at my Fingertips’ painting by Alan Bean has been on loan to the Cosmosphere since September 2006. Stacy McFadden was the lender, and all credits for the loan were listed as, on loan from the Tom McFadden Family.

“The painting has been on display in various areas of our museum since its arrival here until last week when it was removed for shipment per the lender’s request. Since April 2010, “Our World at my Fingertips” has been on display in the Cosmosphere’s Hall of Space museum’s Lunar Surface exhibit.

“The Cosmosphere is grateful for the opportunity to have displayed Alan Bean’s artwork in our museum for almost 10 years. We hope the future owner of the artwork appreciates the history and beauty Mr. Bean created in his artwork. Jim Remar. President/COO”Starting Bid: $20,000


“The rover looks very sporty right now...”

50038 Alan Bean Original 1984 Painting “Test Drive,” Acrylic on Masonite, Museum Framed. A gorgeous 24” x 18” painting, beautifully framed to an overall 32.5” x 27.5”. Signed at lower right: “Alan Bean 1984”. The picture is of Cernan testing the LRV on the lunar surface before it’s been “tricked out” with the extra equipment. This is a rare opportunity to own an original painting from this amazingly talented explorer and artist. Ready to hang in your home or office. Excellent.

Alan Bean explains the story behind the painting as follows: “Apollo 17 Astronaut Eugene Cernan is taking his brand new lunar rover for a quick test drive. He and Jack Schmitt have just lowered the rover from its berth on the side of the lunar module where it was stowed, folded up.

“The rover looks a little different than a conventional automobile, but for a good reason. It’s powered by batteries driving small electric motors on each wheel. An automobile engine wouldn’t run up here because there is no air to mix with the gas. There is no steering wheel or accelerator or brake pedal, either, as they would be too tiring to work in the rigid spacesuit. All these control features are provided by a small control stick mounted be-tween the seats. Gene has only to push the stick to go forward, push it right to go right, and so forth.

“The rover looks very sporty right now because most of its equipment has not yet been mounted. In a few minutes, Gene and Jack will install the television camera and antenna on the front; the tool pallet and tools on the rear, and then all the rest of the gear that make the rover a super work vehicle.

“Gene is probably praying the rover performs as expected because he and Jack need to travel their planned exploration routes over the next three days. On their longest excursion, they will travel a total of 12 miles. The rover comes with a written, one hundred-percent lifetime warranty. However, the vehicle must be returned to the original dealer, 239,000 miles away, to get anything fixed.”Starting Bid: $20,000

It is captioned beneath the image: “November 1969: The crew of Apollo XII poses for a dream come true.

Alan Bean gives the story behind the image: “I knew that creating a painting to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the first lunar landing and the total Apollo program would be difficult. I wanted it to show some of the more important things we did on the Moon and, most of all, the spirit of the adventure as we astronauts experienced it. But how does one show in a single painting the dedication, the intensity, the self sac-rifice, the sense of duty, history and patriotism that engulfed us all in our quest for the Moon? I didn’t know if it could be done, but I began... I enjoyed creating “In the Beginning...” in this way because it was created just like Apollo. It was not the handiwork of any one person but of many dedicated people working together to make an ages-old dream come true...”Starting Bid: $750

It was a breathtaking sight.” Matted and framed to an overall 34” x 27”. Excellent.

Bean explains the title: “After returning to Earth, I had to paint my experience. But what would be a suitable title? I thought of a favorite painting by Winslow Homer, an American artist of the late 1800’s depicting 3 fishermen in a small boat. In the distance was a faint full Moon just being touched by the Earth’s horizon. Homer’s title: ‘Kissing the Moon.’”Starting Bid: $350

It also represents those who fly on space shuttles and will fly on a space station and on future missions only dreamed about at this time. The astronaut is an emissary of us all, soaring away from our planet earth...

There is a handwritten notation: “To Major General Charles F. Duchein/ With Best Wishes” and the crew has signed beneath: “Frank Borman”, “James Lovell”, and “Bill Anders”. Framed to an overall 15.5” x 12.5”. Charles F. Duchein, Major General of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves, was president of the Navy League at the time this was pre-sented to him in person by James Lovell in a March 1969 ceremony in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Lovell and his wife travelled to Louisiana to be a part of a banquet in Duchein’s honor (copies of newspaper articles in-cluded). A highly-decorated WWII hero, Duchein’s cita-tions include the Legion of Merit, Distinguished Flying Cross, and Purple Heart. This is from the collection of his daughter. Paper somewhat crinkled, glue on flag shows bleedthrough, and the handwriting is faded, particularly Anders’ signature. This is often the case with presenta-tions that have hung proudly on a family member’s wall for many years. It doesn’t detract from the rarity and de-sirability of the piece. Very good.Starting Bid: $3,000

Flown to the moon and signed by the crew, Collins number C-2

50064 Apollo 11 Flown Crew-Signed Quarantine Cover, C-2, Originally from the Personal Collection of Mission Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, Signed and Certified. A color-cacheted “NASA Manned Spacecraft Center Stamp Club Official Commemorative Cover of the First Manned Lunar Exploration” signed “Neil Armstrong”, “Michael Collins”, and “Buzz Aldrin” to the right of the cachet. Collins has signed at upper left: “Carried to the Moon aboard Apollo 11” and numbered it “C-2” in the image of earth in the cachet. This cover flew to the moon on one of mankind’s greatest adventures, the first manned lunar landing mission. Affixed to the cover is a 6¢ “Apollo 8” stamp (Scott #1371) with an August 11, 1969, can-cellation at Webster, Texas. Stamped beneath the cancellation is the text: “Delayed In Quarantine At/ Lunar Receiving Laboratory/ M.S.C. - Houston, Texas”. Apollo 11 splashed down on earth on July 24 at which point, the equipment, and astronauts from the spacecraft were quarantined. As soon as this cover was released, it was taken to the nearest post office for cancellation. This is the pinnacle, the ultimate, for any collection of space-related covers. An extremely desirable low number from this member of the crew. Very fine.

Space historian Howard Weinberger has done extensive research on these Apollo 11 flown covers and has confirmed that there were a total of 214 covers flown. Of the three different cachet designs known, the majority were of this NASA Manned Spacecraft Center variety. The 214 flown covers were shared among the crew in the following breakdown: Armstrong- 47; Collins- 63; and Aldrin- 104. Each of the astronauts devised their own serial numbering key for their covers. Aldrin noted each cover in the top left corner with his initials and a number. Collins noted his covers within the image of the earth on the front with his last name initial and a number such as the “C-2” found on this one in that position. Aldrin and Collins hand wrote above the cachet on each of their covers that it flew to the moon aboard Apollo 11. It is not known if and how Armstrong notated his. Armstrong had recently confirmed that he was still in possession of his forty-seven covers and that they were noted similarly to the Aldrin and Collins covers. Weinberger, analyzing their collectability, states: “... the flown covers really do exemplify the ideal rarity because they incorporate all of the desired elements: the commemorative aspect, the flown status, the quarantine time, the crew signatures and the scarcity of only 214 having existed.” A great opportunity for the astute collector.Starting Bid: $32,000


From Michael Collins’ collection

50065 Apollo 11 Flown Silver Robbins Medallion, Serial Number 64, Originally from the Personal Collection of Mission Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, with Handwritten LOA. This 28mm sterling silver medal was one of 450 flown aboard Apollo 11, the first manned moon landing, July 16-24, 1969, with crewmembers Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin. The obverse depicts Collins’ early and original concept for the mission insignia with the eagle carrying an olive branch in its mouth. NASA thought the sharp, open talons of the eagle looked too “warlike” and the olive branch, representing peace, was moved to the claws. This is one of, if not the only, major official item that renders the insignia as it was meant to be by the astro-naut designer. The reverse features the dates of the mission, surnames of the crew, and the serial number. Very desirable being from the collection of a crew member (and insignia designer). Excellent.

Included with this lot is a handwritten and signed Letter of Authenticity on Collins’ personal notecard reading, in full: “I hereby certify that Apollo XI Silver Robbins Medallion #64 was flown aboard the first lunar landing flight, July 1969. It has been in my personal collection since then. Michael Collins. Apollo XI CMP. June 22, 2016.”Starting Bid: $17,500


Signed only for families of the crew at the President’s Dinner Honoring Apollo 11 Astronauts

50066 Apollo 11 Crew-Signed Lunar Plaque Replica with Official Collins Family Photo, Parking Credentials, Invitation, and Dinner Menu from the 1969 Nixon Presidential State Dinner, Originally from the Collection of the Michael Collins’ Family. A 7.5” x 5.5” replica of the famous plaque left on the surface of the moon attached to the Lunar Module Eagle bearing the iconic phrase: “We came in peace for all mankind.” This one has the added engraving at the bottom: “President’s Dinner Honoring Apollo 11 Astronauts/ August 13, 1969” as given to the attendees of that din-ner. Housed in its original folder with Apollo 11 insignia on front and signed beneath the plaque that very night: “Neil Armstrong”, “Michael Collins”, and “Buzz Aldrin”. The day after their release from quarantine, the crew of Apollo 11 was feted with ticker tape parades in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. That evening, they attended this State Dinner with President Nixon and numerous congressmen, governors, and ambassadors from around the world, as well as their fellow astronauts, where they were presented Presidential Medals of Freedom. Included with this signed plaque are: the Car Credentials from that night (“Presidential Party/ Apollo XI Dinner”); the original Invitation (“The President and Mrs. Nixon request the pleasure of your company...”); and the Menu (“Filet of Beef Perigourdine” main course). An incredible offering of an item rare in its own right, but incredibly rare as signed by the three members of the famous crew on a night where they were honored by their country and president at a State Dinner. A museum-quality group of items. All very fine or better.

Members of the Collins family shown in the 9.75” x 7” glossy B&W photograph included (left to right): Alphonsa Spera (Mike Collins’ brother-in-law); Agnes [Collins] Spera (Mike Collins’ sister); Lawton Collins (Mike Collins’ brother); President Richard N. Nixon; Pat Collins (Mike Collins’ wife); Virginia Collins (Mike Collins’ mom); Mike Collins; and “Yoland Collins (Lawton’s wife - Mike Collins’ sister-in-law).Starting Bid: $3,000


The first mission to make use of Insurance Covers

50067 Apollo 11 Crew-Signed “Type One” Insurance Cover. A philatelic cover with the “Apollo 8” 6¢ stamp (Scott #1371) affixed, machine canceled (completely off the stamp) at Houston, Texas, on July 20, 1969, the day Apollo 11 landed on the moon. The color cachet features the text: “NASA Manned Spacecraft Center Stamp Club Official Commemorative Cover First Manned Lunar Exploration” above a colorful moon scene. It is neatly signed to the right in blue felt tip: “Neil Armstrong”, “Michael Collins”, and “Buzz Aldrin”. The cancellation just barely touches the top portion of Armstrong’s signature. Excellent.

Since flying to the moon was considered a “high risk” activity by insurance companies, the astronauts would sign a quantity of these covers pre-flight to be left behind for family members to sell in case of a tragic accident. Apollo 11 was the first mission that made use of these covers.Starting Bid: $2,500

On the inside is printed: “On the occasion of the visit of the crew of Apollo-11. Mr. Neil A. Armstrong, Col. E. Aldrin Jr. and Col. Michael Collins. Beograd, October 18th, 1969”. This is not from the reception but rather from the private luncheon where only Tito, the crew, and their wives were present. A unique combination of signatures. Light wear and some minor toning on the cover, overall very fine.

There’s an interesting story Michael Collins told about Neil Armstrong shortly after his death, published originally in the Washington Post. “Neil was smart as hell - and an encyclopedia of knowledge of things far be-yond air and space. He trotted out tidbits on occasion. After the flight of Apollo 11, we went on a world tour. One evening we found ourselves in Yugoslavia at a formal dinner hosted by Marshal Tito and his wife, Madame Broz. The small talk got smaller and smaller, with madame do-ing a fine imitation of an Easter Island monolith: frozen, staring straight ahead. Neil bent over and started talking quietly to her, and when I strained to listen, I was astounded that he was talking about Nikola Tesla, the early electric genius and competitor of Thomas Edison. Had Neil lost his mind? No, Madame Broz lit up like a thousand-watt bulb, and from then on we were all buddies, including even the taciturn Tito. Later I asked Neil about his choice of topic. ‘Oh,’ he replied offhandedly, ‘she is related to Tesla.’”Starting Bid: $1,000

“...in recognition of his many hours spent as the Manager of this document...”

50102 Apollo 13 Flown and Crew-Signed NASA CSM Launch Checklist Book Directly from the Personal Collection of the Book’s Preparer Dennis Bentley, with Signed LOA from Fred Haise. A 6” x 9” book of approximately 130 pages (65 leaves) on cardstock, three-hole punched and held together with three loose-leaf binder rings. The NASA Part Number is “SKB32100082-309” and the Serial Number is “1001”. The title page lists Dennis L. Bentley as Preparer and Book Manager and the crew presented this to him after the mission, signing on the cover as follows: “To Dennis-/ This document flown to the moon/ on Odessey [sic] 11-17 April 1970. Thanks/ from the Apollo 13 crew-/ Fred Haise”, “James Lovell”, and “Jack Swigert”. This Checklist was used from Liftoff through Translunar Injection (TLI) and Lunar Module Extraction at ~4 hours and 30 minutes. It includes the following procedures: Boost Preparation, Boost Monitoring, Insertion and Systems Checks, TLI Preparation, Nominal TLI, Manual TLI, SC/Booster Separation, Docking with the Lunar Module and Lunar Module Extraction. The crew was trained to fly the Saturn V to orbit or to fly the TLI if the Saturn’s stable member platform failed. The checklist also contains Launch Abort procedures, Emergency procedures for various failures, and Earth Orbit Deorbit and Entry procedures if the TLI is No Go.

Late changes to the checklist were “pen and ink” and those were made with a fine tip black pen. The red notes were made by Ken Mattingly about a week before the flight. Due to his exposure to Measles, backup CMP Jack Swigert took his place at the last minute. The TLI Burn data and the TLI + 90 minute abort data was read up to the crew and it was recorded in pencil. The TLI + 90 minute abort was provided in case there was a CSM failure that required a return to earth using the SPS engine.

This Checklist was used again in the Command Module power up procedures. Approximately 400 switches and circuit breakers had to be set for the start of the new power up procedures and instead of reading up all of them, only about 100 switches and circuit breakers that were different than the Liftoff Configuration were read up to Jack Swigert. An important and unique piece of history used not only at the successful start of the mission but also in their harrowing journey home. Shows light wear and soiling. Fine.

Included with this lot is a signed Letter of Authenticity from Mission Lunar Module Pilot Fred Haise stating, in full: “The Apollo 13 CSM Launch Checklist was carried around the moon on the April 11-17, 1970 flight of Apollo 13. At just under 56 hours into the mission, an oxygen tank explo-sion resulted in a major loss of electrical power to the Command and Service Module. This event caused a scrub of the lunar landing and forced us to move into the Lunar Module in order to survive a four day journey around the moon and return back to earth. The Mission stands out an epic example of training and teamwork overcoming a great challenge. Many individuals from NASA and our contractor team worked around the clock to ensure our safe return. This drama was captured in the Hollywood Movie Apollo 13. This checklist was awarded to Dennis Bentley after the flight in recognition of his many hours spent as the Manager of this document that helped us get off to a good start on the Mission. Dennis was the Manager of the Apollo 13 Launch and Entry Checklists. The checklist had been in my personal artifact collection until awarded to Dennis.”Starting Bid: $15,000


NGC Certified “Ex. Jack Swigert”

50103 Apollo 13 Flown MS68 NGC Silver Robbins Medallion, Serial Number 154, Originally from the Personal Collection of Mission Command Module Pilot Jack Swigert. A stunning 32mm sterling silver medal. Due to the last minute substitution of Swigert for Mattingly and the problems that prohibited Apollo 13 from accomplish-ing its mission, all of the original flown medallions were melted down. This is one of 404 newly-designed sterling silver medallions that were struck from the flown metal. The design features the mission insignia depicting the name of the mission, three of Apollo’s chariot horses flying toward the Moon, and the slogan “Ex Luna, Scientia” (“from the moon, knowledge”). The reverse features the names of the crewmem-bers, the modules, Aquarius (lunar) and Odyssey (command), the en-graved dates of launch and return, the serial number, and the sterling and Robbins hallmarks. Robbins medallions from the collections of crewmembers of the particular flight are quite desirable to collectors. Included with this lot is a COA from RR Auction. A beautiful Superb Gem Uncirculated example.Starting Bid: $3,500

Lunar Module and Command/Service Module undocking procedures

50106 Apollo 13 Flown “Undocking/ Separation” Quick Reference Checklist Cue Card Directly from the Personal Collection of Mission Commander James Lovell, Signed, with Signed LOA. A 4.625” x 6” (overall) heavyweight card printed on both sides, dated March 16, 1970, odd-shaped and with strips of Velcro on both sides for mounting on the instrument panel as needed. The front of this card, which gives detailed instructions on the undocking procedure is signed in black ink: “LM/CSM Separation around moon/ James Lovell”. The other side is divided into four sections with titles “MNA”, “MNB, “AC1”, and AC2”. Of course, due to the onboard explosion, the moon landing was aborted and these undocking procedures weren’t carried out as planned. Very rare and desirable. Excellent.

Included with this lot is a signed Letter of Certification from Lovell on his company letterhead stating, in full: “I hereby certify that this Apollo 13 Undocking and Separation Checklist was on board the Apollo 13 space-craft. It was put on the instrument panel for reference when needed. Apollo 13 perilous flight took off on April 11 and returned safely on April 17, 1970.

SPS Burn Rules cue card

50108 Apollo 13 Flown “SPS (Service Propulsion System) Burn Rules” Quick Reference Checklist Cue Card Directly from the Personal Collection of Mission Commander James Lovell, with Signed LOA. A 6” x 3.375” (overall) heavyweight printed card, dated March 16, 1970, odd-shaped and with three pieces of Velcro on the verso for mounting on the instrument panel. This card lists procedures for: SPS Burn Rules; SPS Press Lt; Premature Shutdown; and Engine Does Not Shutdown. The SPS engine was used to place the Apollo spacecraft into and out of lunar orbit and to make mid-course corrections between the earth and the moon. When the oxygen tank exploded in the CSM during the Apollo 13 mission, it was suggested to use the powerful SPS engine to execute a direct abort burn causing the spacecraft to come around the front side of the moon and getting back home within a day and a half. The flight controllers ruled out using it, partly because it re-quired more electrical power than was available and partly because no one knew whether the service module had been structurally weakened by the explosion. If it had, an SPS burn might have been dangerous. A great piece of history. Excellent.

Included with this lot is a signed Letter of Certification from Lovell on his company letterhead stating, in full: “I hereby certify that this Apollo 13 SPS Burn Rules Checklist was on board the Apollo 13 spacecraft. It was put on the instrument panel for reference when needed. Apollo 13 perilous flight took off on April 11 and returned safely on April 17, 1970. This placard is from my personal collection of space artifacts and has been in my possession since the mission.”Starting Bid: $1,500

James Lovell grew up in Wisconsin, gradu-ating from high school in Milwaukee and attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Note: the current Wisconsin flag now contains the terms “Wisconsin” and “1848,” modifications made in 1981. Excellent.

Included with this lot is a signed Letter of Certification from Lovell on his company letterhead stating, in full: “I hereby certify that Wisconsin State Flag was on board the Apollo 13 spacecraft. Apollo 13 perilous flight took off on April 11 and returned safely on April 17, 1970. This flag was from my per-sonal collection of space artifacts and has been in my possession since the mission.”Starting Bid: $600

Are you a turtle?

50113 Jim Lovell’s Original International Association of Turtles Membership Card, Signed by Wally Schirra, Directly from His Personal Collection, with Signed LOA. An International Association of Turtles card, green in color and 3.5” x 2.25” in size. It is dated August 17, 1963, made out to James A. Lovell, and signed by the Imperial Turtle in blue ink: “Walter M Schirra/ Ruler of the Outer Shell”. An interesting period souvenir from this legendary club. Some wear, very good.

By most accounts, this organization started as a fun, fraternal drinking club among World War II pilots. Admission is gained by answering four ques-tions that would apparently have vulgar answers, but in fact do not. Examples are found on the back of this card. Also, the password must be given when asked by another member: “Are you a turtle?” The only acceptable answer, “You bet your sweet *** I am,” had to be spoken in a loud voice or the one challenged had to buy the drinks. This was based, of course, on the assumption that all members owned a certain animal related to a donkey. Wally Schirra was the High Potentate of the astronaut club and during his Sigma 7 flight, he was asked the ever-important question by a ground con-troller just minutes into the mission. He recorded his answer off-radio for later playback. A similar situation came up between Slayton and Schirra on Apollo 7.

Included with this lot is a signed Letter of Authenticity from Lovell on his company letterhead stating, in full: “I hereby certify that this International Association of Turtles Card was presented to me by the Ruler of the Outer Shell - Wally Schirra. It is from my personal collection of space artifacts and has been in my possession since it was presented to me.”Starting Bid: $350

Lets not make it any worse/ by Guessing!’ 4-13-70 Gene Kranz/ ‘Flight’”. Kranz’s level head, experience, and logical approach to the near-disastrous problem aboard Apollo 13 went a long way toward finding a solution and bringing the crew home safely. Excellent.Starting Bid: $350


Carried on the lunar surface

50119 Apollo 14 Lunar Module Flown and Surface Carried Brush-Scriber-Lens Tool on Plaque, Presented to and Directly from the Personal Collection of Mission Support Crew Member Bruce McCandless. An 8” x 2.5” x 1.75” precision aluminum tool with a steel brush and a carbide tip made to serve multiple purposes, mounted onto a 10” x 6.5 x 1” wooden plaque with an engraved plate reading: “Apollo 14/ Jan. 31 - Feb. 9. 1971/ To Bruce/ From Al, Stu. & Ed”. On the top of the tool is engraved a clearly legible and verifiable NASA part and serial number “SEB39100406-203/ SN 2003/ Assy.” with an additional number on the side of the lens area “SEB39100407-202”. This brush-scriber-lens was made to aid the astronauts in ob-serving, cleaning, and marking specimens of moon rocks. It was part of the Small Tool Carrier that was included only on the Apollo 12, 13, and 14 mis-sions; it was carried during Apollo 14 on the Modular Equipment Transporter which is shown in various lunar images (several prints included with lot). It was scheduled to be abandoned on the lunar surface, but instead was returned by Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell and presented to McCandless at the post-mission “pin party.” Very fine.

Included with this lot are several pages from the NASA publication “Catalog of Apollo Lunar Surface Geological Sampling Tools and Containers” picturing the tool and the carrier. Also, a National Air & Space Museum inventory of “dispositioned” Apollo lunar surface tools, used for training, etc. McCandless explains this as follows: “On the page, marked ‘88,’ you will notice that my ‘Brush-Scribe-Lens,’ serial number 2003, is prominently missing. Of the ‘2000 series’ flight hardware tools, the rationale is as follows. Apollo 11 carried the EASEP (Early Apollo Science Experiments Package), because the real ALSEP (Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package) was not ready for flight. The Brush-Scriber-Lens was a part of ALSEP, carried on the MET (Modular Equipment Transporter) on Apollo 14. So, Apollo 12 carried S/N 2001, and left it on the moon. Apollo 13 carried S/N 2002, and dumped into the Pacific Ocean when the Lunar Module was jettisoned just before earth re-entry. Apollo 14 carried my item (S/N 2003), and it was not carried on subsequent missions. Hence, the enumerated items in NASM’s custody.” This confirms that this is the only one of these tools extant that flew to the moon and thus an extremely rare and desirable piece of space history.

Captain Bruce McCandless II (U.S. Navy, retired) was selected as the youngest member of the NASA Astronaut Group 5 in April 1966. He was a CAPCOM on Apollo 11 and joined the astronaut support crew for Apollo 14 where he was also a CAPCOM. He was Backup Pilot for Skylab I (SL-2) and served again as CAPCOM for Skylab II (SL-3) and Skylab III (SL-4). He later collaborated on the development of the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU). McCandless made the first untethered free flight on each of the two MMUs carried on board Space Shuttle Challenger (STS-41-B) in 1984, thereby becoming the first person ever to make an untethered spacewalk. A photo of him floating free in space is one of the most familiar and iconic in American space history.Starting Bid: $15,000

I hereby certify that I presented this medal to Jean Beaulieu, the designer of the above-seen mission insignia, shortly after the mission and it has been in her possession since receiving it.”

Also included with this lot is a signed Letter of Authenticity from Jean Beaulieu stating, in full: “For several years I was fortunate to be both friend and associate to Astronaut Edgar Mitchell. Due to our association, Dr. Mitchell gave me a Robbins Medallion after each the Apollo flights. I still have seven of the flown medals in my possession. While I was employed as an artist at NASA, I submitted the insignia design which was chosen for the Apollo 14 Mission and used for the Robbins Medallion. Early in our association, I was pleased to introduce Dr. Mitchell to the psychic world. He developed a deep interest in the world of psychic phenomena, which lead him to conduct ESP experiments from space during the Apollo 14 flight. After he completed his mission, I became Dr. Mitchell’s assistant while he further explored metaphysical phenomena, wrote his first book Psychic Exploration: A Challenge for Science, Understanding the Nature and Power of Consciousness, and founded the Institute of Noetic Science.Starting Bid: $3,500

It was designed so that it could be used to apply either a pull or push force. I utilized the multi-piece pole to which it was attached as depicted in Ed Hengefeld’s ‘Saving Skylab’ painting. I leaned out the open hatch, while Joe Kerwin kept a firm stabilizing grip on my ankles. However, in zero-g, it does not take much force to move even a 15-ton Command and Service Module, and I was unable to apply enough force to free the jammed wing, so we moved on to Plan B for a later time.”Starting Bid: $400

Solar and cosmic radiation was long recognized as a potential danger to astronauts. The Apollo program placed men outside the Earth’s geo-magnetic shield for the first time, exposing them to types and levels of radiation not found on Earth, including the Van Allen Belts and cosmic rays. To allow an accurate reading of radiation exposure, each Apollo as-tronaut carried one of these PRD devices which was carried in a pocket in the spacesuit or flight coveralls. It provided a visual readout of the ac-cumulated radiation dosage as the mission progressed.Starting Bid: $4,000

These six astronauts and one teacher lost their lives when the Challenger broke apart just seventy-three seconds after lift-off on January 28, 1986. This disaster led to a two and one-half year grounding of the Shuttle program. Signed crew photos from this mission are rare and desirable. This is an actual photo, not the more commonly-seen litho print. Very fine. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.Starting Bid: $2,500

All seven of these astronauts lost their lives when Columbia, on its twenty-eighth mission, disintegrated dur-ing re-entry into earth’s atmosphere on February 1, 2003. A rare and desirable photo, only the second Heritage has offered. An insignificant crease in top margin, otherwise excellent. From the Collection of Dr. Bruce Wayne Overton.Starting Bid: $2,500

50162 Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-107) Crew-Signed Launch and Reentry Cover.

Brown”, “Kalpana Chawla”, “Michael Anderson”, “Laurel Clark”, and “Ilan Ramon”. The launch cancel is dated January 16, 2003, at Kennedy Space Center FL. The second cancellation is dated February 1, 2003, also at Kennedy Space Center. This was the date of the catastrophic failure during reentry in which the shuttle disintegrated, killing all seven aboard. Rare. Excellent.Starting Bid: $750

“Thanks for the great work!”

50163 Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-107) Crew: Individually-Signed Color Photos of All Seven Inscribed to the Orbital Processing Facility 3 Crew. A unique group of NASA litho prints of each crewmember of this disastrous mission; Columbia disintegrated upon re-entry on February 1, 2003, killing all aboard. All of these photos were signed to the crew that did the maintenance on Columbia before the flight at OPF 3. As follows.

Rick Husband: “To the/ OPF Bay 3 Team/ Thanks for the/ Great Work!/ Rick Husband/ STS-107 CDR/ Proverbs 3: 5-6”.Willie McCool: “To the OPF/ Bay 3 Team: With boundless/ gratitude!!/ Willie McCool/ STS-107”.David Brown: “To the OPF/ Bay 3/ Team/ Thanks for All/ Your Great Work/ on Columbia-/ Dave Brown/ STS-107”Kalpana Chawla: “For the OPF Bay 3 Team,/ Thanks for taking such/ good care of Columbia/ Kalpana Chawla/ STS-87, 107”.Michael Anderson: “To: OPF Bay 3/ Thanks for the/ hard work/ Michael Anderson”.Laurel Clark: “To the OPF Bay 3 Team-/ Thanks for the superb/ preparation of OC-102/ Columbia for STS-107!/ Laurel Clark”.Ilan Ramon: “To the OPF Bay 3 Team,/ Thanks so much!/ Go Columbia!/ Ilan Ramon/ [Hebrew name]/ STS-107”.

Orbital Processing Facility 3 was one of three of these massive hangars at Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39, west of the Vehicle Assembly Building. After a completed mission, the Shuttle was towed from the Shuttle Landing Facility to its assigned OPF where it spent sev-eral months being prepared for the next mission. Afterwards, it would be rolled out to the VAB for final setup prior to launch. The work done by the OPF team was obviously very important to this crew and these signed photos exhibit their heartfelt thanks for the efforts of these team members.

Also included with this lot are a set of individual engraved plaques for each crewmember and professional quality color photos, as follows: the official crew photo in their orange spacesuits (14” x 11”); a photo of Columbia in OPF 3 (from an earlier mission) (10” x 8”); and a photo of the launch of STS-107 (14” x 11”). Perfect for displaying with these signed photos. All excellent.Starting Bid: $800

Lots containing potentially regulated wildlife material are noted in the description as a convenience to our clients. Heritage Auctions does not accept liability for errors or for failure to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.

The Auction is conducted under these Terms and Conditions of Auction and applicable state and local law. Announcements and corrections from the podium and those made through the Terms and Conditions of Auctions appearing on the Internet at HA.com supersede those in the printed catalog.

Buyer’s Premium: 2. All bids are subject to a Buyer’s Premium which is in addition to the placed successful bid:• Fifteen percent (15%) on Domain Names & Intellectual Property Auction lots;• Seventeen and one-half percent (17.5%) on Currency, US Coin, and World & Ancient Coin Auction

lots (the Buyer’s Premium is 19.5% for auctions in Hong Kong), and except for Gallery Auction lots as noted below;

• Minimum Buyer’s Premium per lot is $19, except for Sports Collectibles lots wherein the Buyer’s Premium is $14 per lot.

Auction Venues: 3. The following Auctions are conducted solely on the Internet: Heritage Weekly Internet Auctions

(Coin, Currency, Comics, Rare Books, Jewelry & Watches, Guitars & Musical Instruments, and Vintage Movie Posters); Heritage Monthly Internet Auctions (Sports, World Coins and Rare Wine). Signature® Auctions and Grand Format Auctions accept bids from the Internet, telephone, fax, or mail first, followed by a floor bidding session; HeritageLive! and real- time telephone bidding are available to registered clients during these auctions.

Bidders: 4. Any person participating or registering for the Auction agrees to be bound by and accepts these

Terms and Conditions of Auction (“Bidder(s)”). 5. All Bidders must meet Auctioneer’s qualifications to bid. Any Bidder who is not a client in good

standing of the Auctioneer may be disqualified at Auctioneer’s sole option and will not be awarded lots. Such determination may be made by Auctioneer in its sole and unlimited discretion, at any time prior to, during, or even after the close of the Auction. Auctioneer reserves the right to exclude any person from the auction.

6. If an entity places a bid, then the person executing the bid on behalf of the entity agrees to personally guarantee payment for any successful bid.

Credit: 7. In order to place bids, Bidders who have not established credit with the Auctioneer must either

furnish satisfactory credit information (including two collectibles-related business references) or supply valid credit card information along with a social security number, well in advance of the Auction. Bids placed through our Interactive Internet program will only be accepted from pre-registered Bidders. Bidders who are not members of HA.com or affiliates should preregister at least 48 hours before the start of the first session (exclusive of holidays or weekends) to allow adequate time to contact references. Credit will be granted at the discretion of Auctioneer. Additionally Bidders who have not previously established credit or who wish to bid in excess of their established credit history may be required to provide their social security number or the last four digits thereof so a credit check may be performed prior to Auctioneer’s acceptance of a bid. Check writing privileges and immediate delivery of merchandise may also be determined by pre-approval of credit based on a combination of criteria: HA.com history, related industry references, bank verification, a credit bureau report and/or a personal guarantee for a corporate or partnership entity in advance of the auction venue.

Bidding Options: 8. Bids in Signature® Auctions or Grand Format Auctions may be placed as set forth in the printed

catalog section entitled “Choose your bidding method.” For auctions held solely on the Internet, see the alternatives on HA.com. Review at http://www.ha.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#biddingTutorial.

9. Presentment of Bids: Non-Internet bids (including but not limited to podium, fax, phone and mail bids) are treated similar to floor bids in that they must be on-increment or at a half increment (called a cut bid). Any podium, fax, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full or half increment will be rounded up or down to the nearest full or half increment and this revised amount will be considered your high bid.

10. Auctioneer’s Execution of Certain Bids. Auctioneer cannot be responsible for your errors in bidding, so carefully check that every bid is entered correctly. When identical mail or FAX bids are submitted, preference is given to the first received. To ensure the greatest accuracy, your written bids should be entered on the standard printed bid sheet and be received at Auctioneer’s place of business at least two business days before the Auction start. Auctioneer is not responsible for executing mail bids or FAX bids received on or after the day the first lot is sold, nor Internet bids submitted after the published closing time; nor is Auctioneer responsible for proper execution of bids submitted by telephone, mail, FAX, e-mail, Internet, or in person once the Auction begins. Bids placed electronically via the internet may not be withdrawn until your written request is received and acknowledged by Auctioneer (FAX: 214-409-1425); such requests must state the reason, and may constitute grounds for withdrawal of bidding privileges. Lots won by mail Bidders will not be delivered at the Auction unless prearranged.

11. Caveat as to Bid Increments. Bid increments (over the current bid level) determine the lowest amount you may bid on a particular lot. Bids greater than one increment over the current bid can be any whole dollar amount. It is possible under several circumstances for winning bids to be between increments, sometimes only $1 above the previous increment. Please see: “How can I lose by less than an increment?” on our website. Bids will be accepted in whole dollar amounts only. No “buy” or “unlimited” bids will be accepted.

The following chart governs current bidding increments (see HA.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#guidelines-increments).

Current Bid ..............Bid Increment< $10.................................................$1$10 - $49 ......................................... $2$50 - $99 ......................................... $5$100 - $199 ................................... $10$200 - $499 ................................... $20$500 - $999 ................................... $50$1,000 - $1,999 ........................... $100$2,000 - $4,999 ........................... $200$5,000 - $9,999 ........................... $500

Current Bid ..............Bid Increment$10,000 - $19,999 ................... $1,000$20,000 - $49,999 ................... $2,000$50,000 - $99,999 ................... $5,000$100,000 - $199,999 ............ $10,000$200,000 - $499,999 ............ $20,000$500,000 - $999,999 ............ $50,000$1,000,000 - $4,999,999 .... $100,000$5,000,000 - $9,999,999 .... $250,000>= $10,000,000 .................. $500,000

12. If Auctioneer calls for a full increment, a bidder may request Auctioneer to accept a bid at half of the increment (“Cut Bid”) only once per lot. After offering a Cut Bid, bidders may continue to participate only at full increments. Off-increment bids may be accepted by the Auctioneer at Signature® Auctions and Grand Format Auctions. If the Auctioneer solicits bids other than the expected increment, these bids will not be considered Cut Bids.

Conducting the Auction: 13. Notice of the consignor’s liberty to place bids on his lots in the Auction is hereby made in

accordance with Article 2 of the Texas Business and Commercial Code. A “Minimum Bid” is an amount below which the lot will not sell. THE CONSIGNOR OF PROPERTY MAY PLACE WRITTEN ”Minimum Bids” ON HIS LOTS IN ADVANCE OF THE AUCTION; ON SUCH LOTS, IF THE HAMMER PRICE DOES NOT MEET THE “Minimum Bid”, THE CONSIGNOR MAY PAY A REDUCED COMMISSION ON THOSE LOTS. ”Minimum Bids” are generally posted online several days prior to the Auction closing. For any successful bid placed by a consignor on his Property on the Auction floor, or by any means during the live session, or after the ”Minimum Bid” for an Auction have been posted, we will require the consignor to pay full Buyer’s Premium and Seller’s Commissions on such lot.

14. The highest qualified Bidder recognized by the Auctioneer shall be the Buyer. In the event of a tie bid, the earliest bid received or recognized wins. In the event of any dispute between any Bidders at an Auction, Auctioneer may at his sole discretion reoffer the lot. Auctioneer’s decision and declaration of the winning Bidder shall be final and binding upon all Bidders. Bids properly offered, whether by floor Bidder or other means of bidding, may on occasion be missed or go unrecognized; in such cases, the Auctioneer may declare the recognized bid accepted as the winning bid, regardless of whether a competing bid may have been higher. Auctioneer reserves the right after the hammer fall to accept bids and reopen bidding for bids placed through the Internet or otherwise.

15. Auctioneer reserves the right to refuse to honor any bid or to limit the amount of any bid, in its sole discretion. A bid is considered not made in “Good Faith” when made by an insolvent or irresponsible person, a person under the age of eighteen, or is not supported by satisfactory credit, collectibles references, or otherwise. Regardless of the disclosure of his identity, any bid by a consignor or his agent on a lot consigned by him is deemed to be made in “Good Faith.” Any person apparently appearing on the OFAC list is not eligible to bid.

16. Nominal Bids. The Auctioneer in its sole discretion may reject nominal bids, small opening bids, or very nominal advances. If a lot bearing estimates fails to open for 40–60% of the low estimate, the Auctioneer may pass the item or may place a protective bid on behalf of the consignor.

17. Lots bearing bidding estimates shall open at Auctioneer’s discretion (generally 40%-60% of the low estimate). In the event that no bid meets or exceeds that opening amount, the lot shall pass as unsold.

18. All items are to be purchased per lot as numerically indicated and no lots will be broken. Auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw, prior to the close, any lots from the Auction.

19. Auctioneer reserves the right to rescind the sale in the event of nonpayment, breach of a warranty, disputed ownership, auctioneer’s clerical error or omission in exercising bids and reserves, or for any other reason and in Auctioneer’s sole discretion. In cases of nonpayment, Auctioneer’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay Auctioneer its fees (seller’s and buyer’s premium) and any other damages or expenses pertaining to the lot.

20. Auctioneer occasionally experiences Internet and/or Server service outages, and Auctioneer periodically schedules system downtime for maintenance and other purposes, during which Bidders cannot participate or place bids. If such outages occur, we may at our discretion extend bidding for the Auction. Bidders unable to place their Bids through the Internet are directed to contact Client Services at 877-HERITAGE (437-4824).

21. The Auctioneer, its affiliates, or their employees consign items to be sold in the Auction, and may bid on those lots or any other lots. Auctioneer or affiliates expressly reserve the right to modify any such bids at any time prior to the hammer based upon data made known to the Auctioneer or its affiliates. The Auctioneer may extend advances, guarantees, or loans to certain consignors.

22. The Auctioneer has the right to sell certain unsold items after the close of the Auction. Such lots shall be considered sold during the Auction and all these Terms and Conditions shall apply to such sales including but not limited to the Buyer’s Premium, return rights, and disclaimers.

Payment: 23. All sales are strictly for cash in United States dollars (including U.S. currency, bank wire, cashier

checks, travelers checks, eChecks, and bank money orders, and are subject to all reporting requirements). All deliveries are subject to good funds; funds being received in Auctioneer’s account before delivery of the Purchases; and all payments are subject to a clearing period. Auctioneer reserves the right to determine if a check constitutes “good funds”: checks drawn on a U.S. bank are subject to a ten business day hold, and thirty days when drawn on an international bank. Clients with pre-arranged credit status may receive immediate credit for payments via eCheck, personal, or corporate checks. All others will be subject to a hold of 5 days, or more, for the funds to clear prior to releasing merchandise. (Ref. T&C item 7 Credit for additional information.) Payments can be made 24-48 hours post auction from the My Orders page of the HA.com website.

24. Payment is due upon closing of the Auction session, or upon presentment of an invoice. Auctioneer reserves the right to void an invoice if payment in full is not received within 7 days after the close of the Auction. In cases of nonpayment, Auctioneer’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay Auctioneer its fees (seller’s and buyer’s premium) on the lot and any other damages pertaining to the lot or Auctioneer. Alternatively, Auctioneer at its sole option, may charge a twenty (20%) fee based on the amount of the purchase. In either case the Auctioneer may offset amount of its claim against any monies owing to the Bidder or secure its claim against any of the Bidder’s properties held by the Auctioneer..

25. Lots delivered to you, or your representative are subject to all applicable state and local taxes, unless appropriate permits are on file with Auctioneer. Bidder agrees to pay Auctioneer the actual amount of tax due in the event that sales tax is not properly collected due to: 1) an expired, inaccurate, or inappropriate tax certificate or declaration, 2) an incorrect interpretation of the applicable statute, 3) or any other reason. The appropriate form or certificate must be on file at and verified by Auctioneer five days prior to Auction, or tax must be paid; only if such form or certificate is received by Auctioneer within 4 days after the Auction can a refund of tax paid be made. Lots from different Auctions may not be aggregated for sales tax purposes.

26. In the event that a Bidder’s payment is dishonored upon presentment(s), Bidder shall pay the maximum statutory processing fee set by applicable state law. If you attempt to pay via eCheck and your financial institution denies this transfer from your bank account, or the payment cannot be completed using the selected funding source, you agree to complete payment using your credit card on file.

27. If any Auction invoice submitted by Auctioneer is not paid in full when due, the unpaid balance will bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law from the date of invoice until paid. Any invoice not paid when due will bear a three percent (3%) late fee on the invoice amount. If the Auctioneer refers any invoice to an attorney for collection, the buyer agrees to pay attorney’s fees, court costs, and other collection costs incurred by Auctioneer. If Auctioneer assigns collection to its in-house legal staff, such attorney’s time expended on the matter shall be compensated at a rate comparable to the hourly rate of independent attorneys.

28. In the event a successful Bidder fails to pay any amounts due, Auctioneer reserves the right to sell the lot(s) securing the invoice to any underbidders in the Auction that the lot(s) appeared, or at subsequent private or public sale, or relist the lot(s) in a future auction conducted by Auctioneer. A defaulting Bidder agrees to pay for the reasonable costs of resale (including a 15% seller’s commission, if consigned to an auction conducted by Auctioneer). The defaulting Bidder is liable to pay any difference between his total original invoice for the lot(s), plus any applicable interest, and the net proceeds for the lot(s) if sold at private sale or the subsequent hammer price of the lot(s) less the 15% seller’s commissions, if sold at an Auctioneer’s auction.

29.Auctioneer reserves the right to require payment in full in good funds before delivery of the merchandise. 30. Auctioneer shall have a lien against the merchandise purchased by the buyer to secure payment of

the Auction invoice. Auctioneer is further granted a lien and the right to retain possession of any other property of the buyer then held by the Auctioneer or its affiliates to secure payment of any Auction invoice or any other amounts due the Auctioneer or affiliates from the buyer.

Terms and Conditions of AuctionWith respect to these lien rights, Auctioneer shall have all the rights of a secured creditor under Article

9 of the Texas Uniform Commercial Code, including but not limited to the right of sale (including a 15% seller’s commission, if consigned to an auction conducted by Auctioneer). In addition, with respect to payment of the Auction invoice(s), the buyer waives any and all rights of offset he might otherwise have against the Auctioneer and the consignor of the merchandise included on the invoice. If a Bidder owes Auctioneer or its affiliates on any account, Auctioneer and its affiliates shall have the right to offset such unpaid account by any credit balance due Bidder, and it may secure by possessory lien any unpaid amount by any of the Bidder’s property in their possession..

31. Title shall not pass to the successful Bidder until all invoices are paid in full. It is the responsibility of the buyer to provide adequate insurance coverage for the items once they have been delivered to a common carrier or third-party shipper.

Delivery; Shipping; and Handling Charges: 32. Buyer is liable for shipping, handling, registration, and renewal fees, if any. Please refer to Auctioneer’s

website HA.com/c/shipping.zx for the latest charges or call Auctioneer. Auctioneer is unable to combine purchases from other auctions or affiliates into one package for shipping purposes. Lots won will be shipped in a commercially reasonable time after payment in good funds for the merchandise and the shipping fees is received or credit extended, except when third-party shipment occurs. Buyer agrees that Service and Handling charges related to shipping items which are not pre-paid may be charged to the credit card on file with Auctioneer.

33. Successful international Bidders shall provide written shipping instructions, including specified customs declarations, to the Auctioneer for any lots to be delivered outside of the United States. NOTE: Declaration value shall be the item’(s) hammer price together with its buyer’s premium and Auctioneer shall use the correct harmonized code for the lot. Domestic Buyers on lots designated for third-party shipment must designate the common carrier, accept risk of loss, and prepay shipping costs.

34. All shipping charges will be borne by the successful Bidder. On all domestic shipments, any risk of loss during shipment will be borne by Heritage until the shipping carrier’s confirmation of delivery to the address of record in Auctioneer’s file (carrier’s confirmation is conclusive to prove delivery to Bidder; if the client has a Signature release on file with the carrier, the package is considered delivered without Signature) or delivery by Heritage to Bidder’s selected third-party shipper. On all foreign shipments, any risk of loss during shipment will be borne by the Bidder following Auctioneer’s delivery to the Bidder’s designated common carrier or third-party shipper.

35. Due to the nature of some items sold, it shall be the responsibility for the successful Bidder to arrange pick-up and shipping through third-parties; as to such items Auctioneer shall have no liability. Failure to pick-up or arrange shipping in a timely fashion (within ten days) shall subject Lots to storage and moving charges, including a $100 administration fee plus $10 daily storage for larger items and $5.00 daily for smaller items (storage fee per item) after 35 days. In the event the Lot is not removed within ninety days, the Lot may be offered for sale to recover any past due storage or moving fees, including a 10% Seller’s Commission.

36A. The laws of various countries regulate the import or export of certain plant and animal properties, including (but not limited to) items made of (or including) Brazilian rosewood, ivory, whalebone, turtle shell, coral, crocodile, or other wildlife. Transport of such lots may require special licenses for export, import, or both. Bidder is responsible for: 1) obtaining all information on such restricted items for both export and import; 2) obtaining all such licenses and/or permits. Delay, failure, or incapacity to obtain any such license or permit does not relieve the buyer of timely payment, or afford them the capacity to void their purchase or payment. For further information, please contact Ron Brackemyre at 800-872-6467 ext. 1312.

Additional Terms & Conditions: MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL AUCTIONS

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM A: Signature® and Grand Format Auctions of Autographs, Sports Collectibles, Music, Entertainment, Political, Americana, Vintage Movie Posters and Pop Culture memorabilia are not on approval. When the lot is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (or its equivalent) from a third-party authentication provider, buyer has no right of return. On lots not accompanied by third-party authentication or under extremely limited circumstances not including authenticity (e.g. gross cataloging error), a purchaser who did not bid from the floor may request Auctioneer to evaluate voiding a sale; such request must be made in writing detailing the alleged gross error, and submission of the lot to Auctioneer must be pre-approved by Auctioneer. A Bidder must notify the appropriate department head (check the inside front cover of the catalog or our website for a listing of department heads) in writing of the Bidder’s request within three (3) days of the non-floor bidder’s receipt of the lot. Any lot that is to be evaluated for return must be received in our offices within 35 days after Auction. AFTER THAT 35 DAY PERIOD, NO LOT MAY BE RETURNED FOR ANY REASONS. Lots returned must be in the same condition as when sold and must include any Certificate of Authenticity. No lots purchased by floor bidders (including those bidders acting as agents for others) may be returned. Late remittance for purchases may be considered just cause to revoke all return privileges.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM B: On any lot presented with a Letter of Authenticity (“LOA”) issued by Auctioneer or its Heritage affiliates, that warranty inures only to the original purchaser (as shown in Auctioneer’s records) “Purchaser”. Purchaser may not transfer the rights afforded under the LOA and it is null and void when Purchaser transfers or attempts to transfer the lot. The LOA warranty is valid from date of the auction in which Purchaser was awarded the lot to four (4) years after its purchase. The LOA warranty is valid as to its attribution to the person or entity described or to the lot’s usage, e.g. game worn. Claim procedure: Purchaser must contact the Auctioneer prior to submission of the lot as to his intent to make a claim and arrange secure shipment. If a lot’s authenticity is questioned by Purchaser within the warranty period, Purchaser must present with the claim, authoritative written evidence that the lot is not authentic as determined by a known expert in the sports field. If Auctioneer concurs that the lot is not as represented, Purchaser shall be refunded their purchase price. If the Auctioneer denies the claim, the Purchaser may file the dispute with the American Arbitration Association with locale in Dallas, Texas, before a single arbitration under expedited rules. The LOA does not provide for incidental or consequential damages or other indirect damages. Any lot sold with a certificate of authenticity or other warranty from an entity other than Auctioneer or Heritage’s affiliates is subject to such issuing entity’s rules and such conditions are the sole remedy afforded to purchaser.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM C: As authenticity and provenance are not warranted, if a Bidder intends to challenge, authenticity or provenance of a lot he must notify Auctioneer in writing within thirty-five (35) days of the Auction’s conclusion. Any claim as to provenance or authenticity must be first transmitted to Auctioneer by credible and definitive evidence or the opine of a qualified third party expert and there is no assurance after such presentment that Auctioneer will validate the claim. Authentication is not an exact science and contrary opinions may not be recognized by Auctioneer. Even if Auctioneer agrees with the contrary opinion of such authentication and validates the claim, Auctioneer’s liability for reimbursement for any opine by Bidder’s expert shall not exceed $500. Acceptance of a claim under this provision shall be limited to rescission of the sale and refund of purchase price; in no case shall Auctioneer’s maximum liability exceed the high bid on that lot, which bid shall be deemed for all purposes the value of the lot. While every effort is made to determine provenance and authenticity, it is the responsibility of the Bidder to arrive at their own conclusion prior to bidding.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM D: In the event Auctioneer cannot deliver the lot or

subsequently it is established that the lot lacks title, or other transfer or condition issue is claimed, Auctioneer’s liability shall be limited to rescission of sale and refund of purchase price; in no case shall Auctioneer’s maximum liability exceed the high bid on that lot, which bid shall be deemed for all purposes the value of the lot. After one year has elapsed from the close of the Auction, Auctioneer’s maximum liability shall be limited to any commissions and fees Auctioneer earned on that lot.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM E: On the fall of Auctioneer’s hammer, buyer assumes full risk and responsibility for lot, including shipment by common carrier, and must provide their own insurance coverage for shipments.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM F: Auctioneer complies with all Federal and State rules and regulations relating to the purchasing, registration and shipping of firearms. A purchaser is required to provide appropriate documents and the payment of associated fees, if any. Purchaser is responsible for providing a shipping address that is suitable for the receipt of a firearm.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM G: Firearms. All firearms, antique, modern, or collectible, are sold “AS IS”. Auctioneer has not inspected the lot for damage or defect patent or latent that may affect the firing or attempted firing of the lot. Purchaser assumes the obligation to inspect the lot before an attempted firing. Auctioneer suggests that each lot be thoroughly inspected by a professional gunsmith. Heritage specifically disclaims any warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or any warranty express or implied or otherwise stated. Auctioneer disclaims any liability pertaining to the lot. Purchaser assumes all RISK of LOSS in the handling of the firearm.

MEMORABILIA AND HISTORICAL TERM H: Screen Shot. Screen shots included in the catalog or on the Heritage Internet are provided for reference only. Important Notice: Many identical versions of props and costumes are created for film and television productions in the normal course of a production. Heritage does not warrant or represent that the screen shots referenced are exact images of the offered item (unless specifically noted in the written description). Use of a screen shot does not constitute a warranty or representation of authenticity or provenance. There is not a right of return or refund based upon a claim arising out of or pertaining to any reference to a screen shot.

SPECIAL TERM I - GUITARS: Bidders are urged to make a personal inspection of any guitar that they intend to bid on as there is a limited right of return. Heritage makes a visual inspection of the guitars to determine whether there are patent defects and whether the date and manufacturer corresponds to the description. Returns are not accepted for latent defects, structural issues, or mechanical and sound reproduction issues. It should be assumed that set up, adjustments and normal maintenance are necessary.

MEMORABILIA & HISTORICAL TERM J: Financing. Auctioneer offers various extended payment options to qualified pre-approved persons and companies. The options include Extended Payment Programs (EPP) Flexible Payment Program (FPP) and Dealer Terms. Each program has its specific terms and conditions and such terms and conditions are strictly enforced. Each program has to be executed by the purchaser. Auctioneer reserves the right to alter or deny credit and in such case these auction terms shall control.
