The replicas flew on board the April 1985 flight of STS-51D. After the flight, one replica was melted and used to produce Official Centennial Seals, which were sold by the US Postal Service to help fund the restoration (one FLOWN copper-cachet cover and NASA paperwork are also included). The other model is on display at the Statue of Liberty. I was responsible for integration of the replica onto the Shuttle for flight, and along with the two replicas, I was sent a 15.6 ounce (442 gram) ingot of copper removed from the Statue of Liberty to be used for any required testing to certify the statue replicas safe for Shuttle Flight. Tests were not required and (this) is the ingot of copper removed from the Stature of Liberty that I received". ALSO included with the lot are three NASA 8x10" color photos of the two Statue replicas and copies of the NASA paperwork related to the flight.
Since the Statue of Liberty is considered to be a National Treasure, any part of the metal from it has to be fully accounted for. This ingot is probably unique and irreplaceable. It will fill an important niche in any Americana collection.

STS-60, 1994, FLOWN, SOKOL-KV-2 ("Falcon") Rescue Suit. A great suit that was worn by the first cosmonaut to fly on the Space Shuttle, Sergei Krikalev, as a member of the STS-60 crew.

Krikalev is called "The Last Soviet Citizen" because he was "stranded" in space (1992) on the Soyuz TM-7 mission. During his almost a year in space, the Soviet Union dissolved and the Russian Federation came into being. The SOKOL KV-2 rescue suit he wore during that flight realized about $135,000 in the Sotheby 1993 "Space History" sale.ALSO included is the ShD-10 black leather/mesh communications headset designed for
use with this suit.

This suit was developed in the late 1970s and has been used up to this day on all Soyuz flights.
