THE FAMOUS 2c PAN-AMERICAN INVERTED CENTRE
1901, Pan-American Exposition Empire State Express, 2c carmine and black, inverted centre error of printing, mint original gum, vibrant outer frame colour with crisp vignette impression, neatly centred, the most recent certificate notes "trace of a
prior tiny natural inclusion above the left '2'", however in photos going back half a century this stamp has remained in the exact same condition as today but this was never mentioned in three prior clear certificates), an exceptionally fine example
of this iconic USA rarity, one of the finest recorded from the most popular of the Pan-American inverted centres with original gum; cert. P.F. (1964, 1989, 2000 and 2006); a show piece item for the discerning collector (Scott $50'000).
Note: The 2c is the rarest of the three Pan-American Exposition Inverts. It is calculated that approximately 200 were issued and approximately 72 unused examples exist of differing appearance and quality, with very few in such fine condition. The
Scott catalogue footnote on this issue notes: "Almost all unused copies of No. 295a have partial or disturbed gum. Values are for examples with full original gum that is slightly disturbed."(Image 1)

1971, Apollo 15 flown moon cover, endorsed at top left “Landed at Hadley Moon, July 30, 1971" and signed by the astronauts Dave Scott and Jim Irwin, further signed at lower left corner by Dave Scott, Al Worden and Jim Irwin,
with the reverse showing a notarized inscription that reads: “This is to certify that this cover was onboard the Falcon at the Hadley-Apennine, Moon, July 30–August 2, 1971,” and is notary stamped and signed Mrs. C. B. Carsey with her notary embossed
seal. Also on the reverse in the lower left corner it's signed Sieger with handwritten serial number “35.” The cover is franked with 1969 10c "First man on the moon" tied by Kennedy Space Center pictorial machine cancel, with 1971 Space Achievement
pair below cancelled on arrival by "USS Okinawa" cancel. Small fault at left, very rare with few known from the "Sieger" covers.
Note: Prior to the flight of Apollo 15, Herman E. Sieger, a German stamp dealer cut a deal with the crew to carry 100 covers to the moon in return for $7'000 each, on the condition that they not be sold until after the end of the Apollo program. The
crew carried his covers, along with 300 of their own. Despite the agreement not to sell the items, the stamp dealer immediately began offering them to interested parties, leading to a Congressional investigation and a decision by NASA to suspend
Scott, Worden, and Irwin from flight duty. This is one of those 100 covers, identified by the rarely seen handwritten astronaut inscription on the front and the notarization on the reverse.(Image 1)
