Retired Soviet/Russian cosmonaut and Air Force Major General who, in 1965, became the first human to conduct a space walk. Souvenir typescript, one page, 8.5 x 11. An excerpt from Leonov’s An Artist in Space, signed at the bottom in blue felt tip. In part: “We were flying over the Black Sea when the command was given to exit. I lightly pushed off with my feet, grabbed on to the handrails, and pulled my legs up…It was so quiet I could hear my heart beating…Having pulled out the lifeline, along with the radio installation, as far as it would go, I smoothly pushed off from the lock chamber…I was suspended about seven meters away from the ship with my face toward the sun.” In fine condition.
