Invitation to the 14th meeting of Komsomol in Moscow on April 16, 1962, 4.75 x 3.25, signed inside in blue ink by Yuri Gagarin and Gherman Titov. In fine condition, with light scratching and wear to the front and back covers, not affecting the interior at all. The Komsomol was a political youth organization in the Soviet Union; Gagarin’s historic flight came on April 12, 1961—almost exactly a year earlier before this meeting—making this a particularly desirable, early example.
