Robert, the PR wiz, asked a few months back if anyone knew of a child, 8-12 or so, who collected astronaut autographs. The result of the inquiry has now hit the news stand. Thanks Robert. The new issue of "Martha Stewart kids" (the back-to-school/Halloween issue) has a two-page spread featuring some of my daughter's autographs (A. Fisher, Glenn, Gordon, Magnus, Sellers, Bean). The photos of the autographs look great. I suspect the brief interview piece was edited to make Anna sound like a nine year old, but the basics are correct. The piece is actually at the back of the insert entitled "how now" within the magazine. No internet link I fear, but the magazine should be on most news stands, either in the kids or crafts section, most likely (it has a light blue upper third with the magazine's name, while the bottom two-third is split into six pictures, almost all Halloween oriented).

Great to hear that some cs members have daughters collecting astronaut autographs! My 11-year old daughter collects since last year. I began in the early 90`s collecting autographs dedicated to her from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo Astronauts I met several times in person. She will continue on our collection in the future! I am looking forward to introduce some of the moonwalkers to her. Happy collecting! GerhardIP: Logged |
