Offered is a group of three books signed by Gemini and Apollo astronauts Eugene Cernan, Alan Bean and Jim Lovell. Between them, they manned seven different space missions during the Gemini and Apollo programs, including a moon landing and walk by Cernan. Lovell, of course, was aboard the ill-fated Apollo 13 spacecraft that had to scrub a moon landing due to electrical issues caused by an explosion. The team was able to return to earth safely. The books include:
- Gene Cernan signed Easton Press 1999 edition of The Last Man on the Moon, with its original Easton Press COA;
- Alan Bean signed Easton Press oversized 1999 limited edition of Apollo, numbered 519/3000, with its original Easton Press COA; and
- Jim Lovell signed 1994 copy of Lost Moon: The Perilous Voyage of Apollo 13, the book that the 1995 film Apollo 13 was based on.
