Description

Presented to a fellow Mercury astronaut—"Gordo—You were part of all of this—so I hope you enjoy 'The Real Stuff!"

Signed book: Moon Shot. First edition. Atlanta: Turner Publishing, Inc., 1994. Hardcover with dust jacket, 6.25 x 9.25, 383 pages. Signed and inscribed on the title page in blue ink to fellow Mercury astronaut Gordon Cooper, "Gordo—You were part of all of this—so I hope you enjoy 'The Real Stuff!,' Alan, 5/25/95." In fine condition. Consignor notes that the book originates from the personal library of Cooper, who has added pencil check marks to index pages 368 and 369, and several pencil markings to pages throughout the book, apparently passages that mention him or simply caught his interest.
