Apollo 15 moonwalker Dave Scott Alfred Worden signed Space cover NASA Astronauts. 2001 30th Anniversary Apollo 15. postmarked cover. Superb illustration on front of scenes from the mission. Also illustrated on back with crew names and mission information. David Randolph Scott (born June 6, 1932) is an American retired test pilot and NASA astronaut who was the seventh person to walk on the Moon. Selected as part of the third group of astronauts in 1963, Scott flew to space three times and commanded Apollo 15, the fourth lunar landing; he is one of four surviving Moon walkers and the last surviving crew member of Apollo 15. Before becoming an astronaut, Scott graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point and joined the Air Force. After serving as a fighter pilot in Europe, he graduated from the Air Force Experimental Test Pilot School (Class 62C) and the Aerospace Research Pilot School (Class IV). Scott retired from the Air Force in 1975 with the rank of colonel, and more than 5,600 hours of logged flying time. As an astronaut, Scott made his first flight into space as a pilot of the Gemini 8 mission, along with Neil Armstrong, in March 1966, spending just under eleven hours in low Earth orbit. He would have been the second American astronaut to walk in space had Gemini 8 not made an emergency abort. Scott then spent ten days in orbit in March 1969 as Command Module Pilot of Apollo 9, a mission that extensively tested the Apollo spacecraft, along with Commander James McDivitt and Lunar Module Pilot Rusty Schweickart. After backing up Apollo 12, Scott made his third and final flight into space as commander of the Apollo 15 mission, the fourth crewed lunar landing and the first J mission. Scott and James Irwin remained on the Moon for three days. Following their return to Earth, Scott and his crewmates fell from favour with NASA after it was disclosed that they had carried four hundred unauthorized postal covers to the Moon. After serving as director of NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center in California, Scott retired from the agency in 1977. Since then, he has worked on a number of space-related projects and served as a consultant for several films about the space program, including Apollo 13. Alfred Merrill Worden (February 7, 1932 - March 18, 2020) was an American test pilot, engineer and NASA astronaut who was the command module pilot for the Apollo 15 lunar mission in 1971. One of only 24 people to have flown to the Moon, he orbited it 74 times in the command module (CM) Endeavour. Worden was born in Michigan in 1932; he spent his early years living on farms and attended the University of Michigan for one year, before securing an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. Graduating in 1955, he elected to be commissioned in the United States Air Force, though he had no piloting experience. He proved adept at flying fighter planes, and honed his skills, becoming a test pilot before his selection as a Group 5 astronaut in 1966. He served on the support crew for Apollo 9 and the backup crew for Apollo 12 before his selection for the Apollo 15 crew in 1970, with David Scott as commander and James Irwin as lunar module pilot. After Apollo 15 reached lunar orbit, and his crewmates departed to land on the Moon, Worden spent three days alone in the CM, becoming in the process the individual who travelled the farthest from any other human being, a distinction he still holds. He took many photographs of the Moon and operated a suite of scientific instruments that probed the Moon. During Apollo 15's return flight to Earth, Worden performed an extravehicular activity (EVA), or spacewalk, to retrieve film cassettes from cameras on the exterior of the spacecraft. It was the first "deep space" EVA in history, and as of 2022 remains the one that has taken place farthest from Earth. After their return, the crew became involved in a controversy over postal covers they had taken to the Moon; they were reprimanded by NASA and did not fly in space again. Worden remained at NASA until 1975 at the Ames Research Center, then entered the private sector. He engaged in a variety of business activities and had a longtime involvement with the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation, serving as chair of its board of directors from 2005 until 2011. He made many public appearances, promoting a renewed space program and education in the sciences, before his death in 2020. Good Condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Roman School (18th century), and probably workshop of Stefano PozziGalatea, after Raphaelred chalk on paper47 × 36cmProvenance:Private CollectionThe reverse bearing two paper labels, one inscribed with the story of Galatea and another, inItalian, identifying the work as a "copy of the original by Raphael d'UrbinoMade by [blank] with the assistance of Mr Stefano Pozzi 1755"The present lot likely originates from the Roman workshop of the painter Stefano Pozzi, who is mentioned on the reverse of the frame.At one point in his career Pozzi held the position of official painter of the Vatican, and also that of Custode delle Pitture, responsible for maintaining and restoring works in the Vatican collections, including the frescoes of Raphael's stanze, which means Pozzi was certainly intimately familiar with the master’s work. A small drawing of the Triumph of Galatea by Pozzi is in the art collection of the State of Maryland (acc. no. MSA SC 4680-13-0408), indicating that the artist certainly worked on this subject at least one other time.

DELTA FOUNTAIN PEN "NAPOLEON BONAPARTE BLUE EDITION".Sgraffito silver barrel with blue resin details.Limited edition. Exemplary 004/808.Nib in 18 kts white gold. Tip FScrew cap. Piston loading.No box.Measurements: 15.8 cm. length, 17 mm. diameter.The pen has a full sterling silver coating and has the option of being automatic or having a clip.Delta honours Napoleon Bonaparte, Emperor of France and King of Italy, as the person responsible for the current single European currency. Delta is proud to present a collection of spectacular limited edition writing instruments in honour of a brilliant historical figure.The Lira was originally called the Libra. It was the standard Roman measure of weight (325 grams or approximately 1 pound).Although Charlemagne transformed this into an abstract currency, it was Napoleon who envisioned a single currency for Europe. On 6 May 1807, Napoleon wrote to the King of Naples: "Brother, when you issue coins, I would like you to adopt the same valuations as in French money. In this way, there will be uniformity throughout Europe, which will be a great advantage to trade". The first Lira was minted at the Milan Mint in 1808.Napoleon's efforts to create a common European currency died with him on the battlefield. The lira became the national currency of Italy after unification in 1860. The recent demise of the lira marks the true unification of Europe and the realisation of Napoleon's dream. The fountain pens in this very special collection feature the first piston filling system in Delta's history.Delta fountain pens are handcrafted in Italy. This prestigious company, founded in 1982, is characterised by a quality that is corroborated by the expertise of its master craftsmen. Delta is, in short, "Art, Design and Quality". In the creation of their exclusive fountain pens, they use a variety of techniques and materials such as carbon, titanium, celluloid, ebonite, special resins or metals and precious materials.

STIPULA FOUNTAIN PEN, "PINOCCHIO".Brown resin barrel and silver ornamentation and details.Limited edition. Exemplary 269/881.Two-tone 18 kts gold nib. Point F.Screw cap. Loading by cartridge.No box.Measures: 14 cm. length, 16 mm. diameter.Beautifully designed pen by Stipula, the limited edition of Pinicchio, produced in an edition of 881.The "Pinocchio" fountain pen by Stipula, inspired by Collodi's story, transfuses all the colours and images of the literary Pinocchio into a unique writing instrument. While the lines undoubtedly echo the geometric shapes of the wooden puppet, in its use of classic red and black ebonite as the basic material, the pen evokes all the consistency and fullness of the puppet who thinks, lives and dreams like a real child. Thus, the material and the cylindrical shape recall the colour and cut of a "common log", and the cap is a perfect stylisation of Pinocchio's hat.
