Lot 618
"GEMINI TITAN LAUNCH VEHICLE" MODEL. This clear lucite/aluminum Martin Marietta contractor's model is unlike anything we have seen before. The model is mounted on a two level blue painted metal heavy base (15.5x16.5x7") with descriptive nameplate that reads: "GEMINI / Martin Marietta / Denver Division". The model measures about 65" tall and consists of four clear lucite and/or intricately constructed machined aluminum sections culminating with a metal Gemini capsule at top. Some faults (mainly to the third section), but this model will occupy an important spot in any model collection. It is probably unique today.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 5,000.
Ex. the NASA Administrator Jerry Hammack Estate collection.
