Project Mercury Astronauts, full sheet of 50 of the 4¢ Project Mercury stamp (Scott 1193) autographed in the wide selvage on the right side of the sheet by six of the "Original Seven" Mercury astronauts: John Glenn, Jr. ("JH Glenn Jr"), Alan Shepard, Jr. ("AB Shepard Jr"), Wally Schirra, Jr. ("WM Schirra Jr"), Virgil "Gus" Grissom ("VI Grissom"), Leroy Gordon "Gordo" Cooper, Jr. ("Leroy G Cooper Jr"), and (Malcolm) Scott Carpenter ("M. Scott Carpenter")—Deke Slayton is the only one of "The Seven" not to have signed. The sheet is believed to have been presented to a Mr. Leslie Williams at a post-mission gathering. Mr. Williams worked as an engineer for one of the subcontractors on the Mercury project, possibly A.B. Dick Co., as evidenced by the Souvenir Apollo 11 Man on the Moon envelope that was mailed to him and in which the sheet has been stored for many years. The narrow selvage on the left has been folded under to fit into the envelope and there is some slight gum loss from improper storage, none of which affect the signatures or the importance of his historic item. Overall Very Fine. Estimate $1,000 - 1,500. Suggested Bid $1,000-1,500 (Image)
