Forty years ago this week, the Apollo 11 space mission was the first manned mission to land on the
moon. The mission launched on July 16, 1969. Mission Commander Neil Armstrong became the first human to walk on the moon on July 20, 1969, followed by Lunar Module Pilot Edwin (Buzz) Aldrin. You might be surprised at the expense of autographed items from the Apollo 11 crew, and especially the high prices on memorabilia from the flight. A Neil Armstrong single signed golf ball sold for $1800 in a recent auction. The item signed by all 3 astronauts and pictured with this article was bid up to $4500 in a December, 2008 Mastro (Now Legendary) Auction. Red full article at the Examiner.com here.
