Travel back in time with RR Auction’s military and Cold War auction. Take a look at some items from significant points in national and global history such as this autograph penned by Napoleon during his exile on St. Helena. We also have some featured items from the Cold War era such as a John F. Kennedy handwritten statement on the United Nations, a Soviet Union Fialka cipher machine, and a GRiD Compass 1101 military computer. Other exciting pieces include a Treaty of Versailles pamphlet, a Winston Churchill signed edition of The Second World War, and a notebook and signed check from ballplayer-turned-spy Moe Berg.
