Lot 709
Vostok 1, 1961, Gagarin Autograph. On a vintage black and white glossy photo (6x9", with thick cardboard backing) of him in his spacesuit. This is a classic photo that has been cut from a vintage scrapbook. The photo is boldly signed in black and inscribed: "In memory about the sunrise (dawn) of the space era. To Komanin, Nikoli Petrovich, Gagarin". A striking piece of "fan" memorabilia that just "reeks" of hero worship by a young Soviet.
Estimated Value $350 - 500.
