    Hi Steve,
    Not been collecting long but managed to get signed photos from Charlie Duke , Ed michell, Pete Conrad and Buzz Aldrin , all Wss and on the moon . i think these are " low level " entry as the rare ones can be thousands.
    Just got to balance trying to build up watches and autographs!
    Best,
    Andy

    Gerry has a John Young, but it's not going to be cheap.

    He's wearing his Speedmaster too :cool::thumbsup: *
    He's a highly respected seller and I've been very happy with my few purchases.

    The crew signed Apollo 10 would be mine if I had the US$2,249 asking.

    Steve seems to price his items fairly highly (from my point of view) but is happy to hold them and wait for the market to catch up. Which it always seems to do ;) [EDIT: Hadn't been there for quite a while, many of the same items still for sale but some of the prices seem quite reasonable now. So maybe I was a bit harsh.]

    * Other astronauts wearing their Speedmaster in signed pics; Dick Gordon, Tom Stafford, Vance Brand, Alan Bean (checking his wrist, Speedmaster not visible)
