Auction Details

RR Auction's Fall Space and Aviation sale closes on October 20th! This high-flying auction features over 800 items, ranging from the dawn of aviation to the commercial spaceflight of today. A large quantity of flown items are featured in the sale, including a pair of pages from Buzz Aldrin’s Apollo 11 flight plan timeline, the electronic module worn inside Gene Cernan’s Snoopy Cap during Apollo 17, a Space Shuttle General Purpose Computer that flew on a combined twenty STS missions between 1981 and 1991, and an extremely rare 1-dollar bill recovered from Gus Grissom’s Liberty Bell 7 spacecraft. Our bidders can expect a terrific assemblage of astronaut and cosmonaut autographs, hard-to-find vintage space models, early NASA hardware and literature, and, the meilleur du meilleur, Wally Schirra’s 18k solid yellow gold Omega Speedmaster Professional watch, a one-of-a-kind timepiece presented exclusively to NASA’s earliest astronauts.
