I am trying to complete my Gemini signed covers collection (crew signed and individual signed for each crew member). I am almost there, but surprising hard to locate some of these. Looking for any of the following: - Jim Lovell signed GT-7 cover
- John Young signed GT-10 cover
- Buzz Aldrin signed GT-12 cover
- Jim Lovell signed GT-12 cover
Looking for clean, non-personalized covers. Email me if you have any extras. I can buy and/or I have much to trade. Thanks! |

You are involved in a challenging and ambitious endeavor, Jeremy, but it looks like you have done exceptionally well. Good to see someone involved in collecting individual Gemini astronaut autographs and especially crew signed covers. I do wonder if there are many of us still active in collecting Mercury-Gemini-Apollo crew signed covers?An email will be sent soon. |

I have seen one GT-9 cover recently, signed only by Stafford and addressed, for sale on Space Cover Store, which I regularly check. I don't really buy signed Mercury, Gemini or Apollo event covers but, yes, they are getting scarce for some missions. |

Yeah, Space Cover Store has had some nice signed covers available, but its surprisingly difficult to find what are typically common signers on individual mission specific covers - no doubt because collectors had both crew members sign when possible - making it easier to find GT-6 and GT-7 covers signed by whole crews or even all four than it is to find a single GT-7 signed by Lovell for example (at least in the eBay/auctions searches I've been doing the last few years). |

I have a Gemini 7 crew signed cover in my shop: USS Wasp with Beck cachet. |
