Delta Clipper FLOWN Mission Patch

Flight-flown limited edition patch from the eighth and final test flight of the Delta Clipper Experimental vehicle, #44/73, launched on July 7, 1995. Oval patch measures 5.25 inches in diameter. Patch is affixed to a color 8.5 x 11 informational sheet, detailing the flight at the White Sands Missile Range, as well as a color image of the take-off.

Accompanied by a 1995 memo from Dale Shell, the DC-X Flight test Manager stating, in part: “I am pleased to certify that this ‘DC-X Delta Clipper - Rapid Turn-Around’ patch was flown aboard flight 8 of the Delta Clipper Experimental…vehicle on 7 July 1995.”

The Delta Clipper Experimental Vehicle was constructed in 1991-93 at McDonnell Douglas' Huntington Beach facility. It was intended as a one-third scale model of a proposed SDIO single-stage launch vehicle. It first flew in August 1993 and had completed three flights when SDIO terminated the Delta Clipper program. After additional funding was procured, the vehicle flew five more flights before being returned to Huntington Beach for conversion into the DC-XA.

FLOWN Aero Shell Fragment from

Pete Conrad's Delta Clipper (DC-X)

This DC-X maiden flight cover has two authentic flown pieces of Delta Clipper aero shell material affixed to it. The material was obtained by Major Dale E. Shell who served as the DC-X & DC-XA Deputy Director for Flight Tests.

The flown material was recovered following the 6/27/94 explosion that occured at the onset of Flight #5. The explosion was due to the ignition of a vented hydrogen cloud which resulted in a 3' x 17' breach in the side of the launch vehicle.

These fragments were removed by Major Shell from the damaged area just above the control surface. It should also be noted that Astronaut Pete Conrad was the DC-X Flight Manager.

The cover is cancelled on August 18, 1993 (Flight #1) at White Sands Missile Range and comes with a hand signed COA from noted space historian Rick Boos to whom it was originally presented.

RARE International Space Station FGB (Functional Cargo Block) External Labels
from the personal space archives of Sy Liebergot, Apollo EECOM

5.5" x 12.5"

#A = $225

The Russian built FGB was the first building block element of the International Space Station (ISS). The external insulation of the FGB is a cloth-like material; consequently, the external equipment labels are a beta-like cloth and sewn on by stitching specialists.

The labels being offered here are NOT replicas but rather from the actual backup set produced for the origional Russian component. They are directly from the personal collection of Flight Controller Sy Liebergot who obtained them through his association with the ISS program.

Each is being offered for sale separately and will include a COA hand signed by Sy explaining their history, his connection to that program, and attesting that they come from his personal collection.

Click on each thumbnail image to enlarge for closer examination.

These external labels are from the only "flight ready" backup set produced for the Russian FGB.

Artifacts of this nature, associated with the International Space Station are difficult if not impossible to find. Ideal for signing by any of the ISS Astronauts or just for display as is, they would make a unique addition to any space memorabilia collection.

"Official NASA" Gemini 4 commemorative

medallion containing FLOWN metal

NASA Gemini 4 medallion with flown metal

On June 3, 1965, during the trailblazing Gemini 4 mission, astronaut Ed White became the first American to walk in space. At 3:45 p.m. EDT, White opened the hatch and used the hand-held maneuvering oxygen-jet gun to push himself out of the capsule. His extravehicular activity (EVA) started during the third orbit and lasted 23 minutes.

This EVA paved the way for the first men to walk on the moon, and for the International Space Station's construction and maintenance. Commander Jim McDivitt stayed inside to photograph these epic moments in U.S. history.

This medallion's front side features a space walk photograph, and the reverse, a reproduction of the actual 1965 Gemini 4 medallion.

This commemorative medallion contains metal flown on Gemini 4. The production run was limited to only 3500 pieces worldwide. This medallion comes with a certificate of authenticity and a plastic display stand.

For your convenience I have provided images of how beautifully packaged this medallion is and details pertaining to it's production and design which can be easily read by clicking on each thumbnail.

Flown Gemini 4 material is exceedingly difficult to come by thus making this display very desirable, particularly given it's very easonable pricing.

My supply of these are very limited so suggest you not wait long to place your order.

Winco International (Winco) certifies that the metal included in this Apollo 40th Anniversary medallion is taken from Apollo Command Modules that flew to the Moon. Since NASA chose to celebrate the entire Apollo Program, no aspect of this 40th anniversary celebration was to be mission specific. As a result, Winco cannot identify the specific Apollo missions that the flown metal is taken from. NASA has accepted Winco's certification per their knowledge of the metal used and their internal usage of these individual and framed medallion editions. Various undefined flown metal types and percentages have been used in the production of these medallions.

The edition is limited to 1972 medallions. Iron clad provenance.

"Official NASA" Mars Curiosity Rover Medallion

NASA is marking the Curiosity rover's first year on Mars with a commemorative medallion minted from metal used in the engineering of the robotic explorer.

NASA's Curiosity medallion features a raised depiction of the Mars rover with its drill-equipped robotic arm stretching into the design's outer border. The three-dimensional rendering captures the Curiosity rover's laser-outfitted camera mast and is detailed enough to make out the custom tread on one of Curiosity's wheels (the pattern leaves behind tracks that spell out "JPL" in Morse code).

The front of the 1.75-inch diameter (4.4 centimeters) medallion is inscribed "Mars Curiosity Rover" and "Landing — August 5, 2012," the latter noting the date of the rover's touchdown as recorded at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, Calif., where Curiosity is controlled.

NASA's insignia doubles as the Earth as rendered on the reverse of the medallion. The agency's emblem is offset by a raised depiction of Mars and its two moons, Phobos and Deimos. Beautifully produced and comes in it's own plastic holder from which it can be easily removed.

This unique custom-made panel honors the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo Program. Adding considerably to it's appeal is that Artist Joan F. Kranz (JFK) also happens to be the daughter of former Flight Director Eugene F. Kranz (EFK).

Joan herself also worked for NASA beginning in 1984 as a computer operator supporting the mainframes on the first floor of the Mission Control (MCC) during the Space Shuttle Program. Additional information about her NASA career can be found on each panel's COA.

A substantial (21.75" x 28.75" piece of cotton bull denim fabric serves as the background for the embroidered patches of Apollo 7, 11 & 17. The centerpiece here is a large hand painted Mission Control Center emblem with Gene's iconic words emblazoned below in raised black letters, "Eagle you are GO for landing".

Artist Joan Kranz has signed and numbered each of these very limited edition panels (visible on the periphery of the MCC emblem). Lastly to top it off in grand fashion each is boldly hand signed by Gene Kranz who adds, "Flight".

Each panel is accompanied by a letter of authenticity from the Artist which reads in part, "this artwork was created to celebrate the approaching 50th anniversary of the Lunar Landing on July 20, 2019 as well as the beginning, middle and end of the Apollo Program. The idea of this panel came from a simple drawing on paper by Flight Director Gene Kranz. The panel represents a culmination of teamwork, leadership and trust required by each Flight Controller when manning a console during the Apollo Program".

If you're seeking a unique limited edition item that combines art with history, is hand signed by the Flight Director himself and created by his daughter (also of NASA liniage) than this is surely for you. It will frame beautifully and easily become the centerpiece of your space memorabilia collection.

Presented by American Airlines to Charles Conrad, Jr.
Admiral of the Flagship Fleet

December 9, 1966

A most interesting award from American Airlines to Astronaut Pete Conrad. A little history....The Admirals Club was conceived by AA president C.R. Smith as a marketing ploy shortly after he was made an honorary Texas Ranger. Inspired by the Kentucky Colonels and other honorary organizations, Smith decided to make particularly valued passengers "Admirals" of the "Flagship Fleet" (AA called it's aricraft "Flagships" at the time). The list of "Admirals" included a number of celebrities, politicians and other VIPs as well as more "ordinary" customers who had been particularly loyal to the airline. Who more fitting to be an honored receipent than Astronaut Pete Conrad ?

This impressive certificate measures 13.25" x 18" and though a bit toned is in excellent condition. It is signed by AA President C.R. Smith as you can see in the image attached.

I'm sure in it's day this was a real conversation piece and today, even more so. It's appeal is not only for it's aviation history but for it's tie in to our early manned space program. It just doesn't get any better. Comes with a COA from Farthest Reaches LLC attesting to it's chain of ownership.

A Moonwalker's Sunglasses (A)

These sunglasses were owned, worn and enjoyed by the man who's eyes were only the third set in history to gaze directly upon the surface of the moon.

These sunglasses are well worn and come in a case that may not have been the original but exactly how they were stored and provided to Farthest Reaches for the purpose of their sale. Come with a COA from a Conrad Family member.

Thrill your friends by allowing them to try on the same shades that covered the eyes of the second Apollo CDR to walk onto the lunar surface! It doesn't get any better than that....

Offered here is the American Automobile Association of Missouri membership card that was used by Pete Conrad in 1989 - 1990. Desirable amoungst other reasons because he would have carried this in his wallet regularly. This is not hand signed by in great shape. Of the several wallet cards of Pete's that I've handled, this is the only AAA card. Very nice.

This meerschaum pipe is from the personal collection of Apollo 12 CDR Pete Conrad. Pete enjoyed pipe smoking and this one comes directly his family where it has remained for several years. This pipe includes Pete's leather storage fitted case AND wood pipe stand (not shown but photo upon request).

This particular pipe is still pristine as it had not yet been used despite having it's place in Pete's collection. A great personal effect from the third man to walk on the moon. A COA from a member of the Conrad family will be included with this item. UNFLOWN (says smiling)

. Charles Conrad's Passport
Skylab Era

This passport was issued on October 9, 1970 and expired (and is stamped CANCELLED) on October 8th, 1975. It also indicates that a new application was made on 1/19/76.

Maknig this quite special is that it was Pete's active passport at the time of his Skylab 2 flight which took place May - June 1973.

As you can see in the image here it's been hand TWiCE by Pete using his full signature.

The passport carried by history's 3rd moonwalker, resident of America's first space station AND a three time pioneer space traveler! It just doesn't get any better than this....

Toyota Grand Prix - Long Beach - 1990

CART Participant Charles Conrad

April 20 - 22, 1990

The credentials on lanyard offered here belonged to Pete Conrad and were worn during the course of this event.

Pete has hand signed this pass THREE times. Once on the Club Entry Pass and twice on the Cart Participant Pass. He most certainly had the "need for speed" and his passion for racing was well known.

This pass measures 3.5" x 7.25" (larger if counting the pass holder) and is excellent condition.
