RR Auction Hank Williams Rare First National Bank check
Rare First National Bank check, 7.5 x 3, filled out and signed by Williams, “Hank Williams,” payable to Menasco Studio for $63.75, Shreveport, April 7, 1949. In very good condition, with two vertical folds, light overall toning with a small central block from tape to the reverse, expected cancellation holes, some slightly affecting the signature, and scattered spots of stray red ink from the cancellation stamp.
Upon moving to Shreveport, Louisiana in 1948, aspiring musician Hank Williams widened his audience by joining Louisiana Hayride, a popular radio show broadcast throughout the southwest. After releasing several singles to moderate success, he had his first number one hit with ‘Lovesick Blues’ in 1949, crossing over to mainstream audiences and earning a place in the Grand Ole Opry. With his rise to national fame beginning, Williams hired the well-known Menasco Studio to take his first set of publicity photographs on April 6th, 1949. Half a century later, the images remain the finest ever taken of the musician, one of which was chosen as the basis for the Hank Williams stamp released by the Post Office in 1993. Williams checks are fantastically scarce—this just the third we have offered—and with this one’s notable recipients, the photographers responsible for what would become the quintessential images of the legendary musician, it is the most desirable by far. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.

RR Auctions Harry S. Truman Impressive Printed Proclamation
Impressive printed proclamation, one page, 13.75 x 17.75, May 8, 1945. A decorative calligraphic proclamation, issued the day following the German surrender, of a day of prayer to be celebrated on May 13, 1945. The text reads, in part: “The Allied Armies, through sacrifice and devotion and with God’s help, have wrung from Germany a final and unconditional surrender. The Western World has been freed of the evil forces which for five years and longer have imprisoned the bodies and broken the lives of millions upon millions of free-born men. They have violated their churches, destroyed their homes, corrupted their children, and murdered their loved ones. Our Armies of Liberation have restored freedom to these suffering people, whose spirit and will the oppressors could never enslave. Much remains to be done. The victory won in the West must now be won in the East. The whole world must be cleansed of the evil from which half the world has been freed. United the peace-loving nations have demonstrated in the West that their arms are stronger by far than the might of the dictators or the tyranny of military cliques that once called us soft and weak…
Now, therefore, I, Harry S. Truman, President of the United States of America, do hereby appoint Sunday, May 13, 1945, to be a day of prayer. I call upon the people of the United States, whatever their faith, to unite in offering joyful thanks to God for the victory we have won and to pray that he will support us to the end of our present struggle and guide us into the ways of peace. I also call upon my countrymen to dedicate this day of prayer to the memory of those who have given their lives to make possible our victory. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States of America to be affixed.” Inscribed to Truman's cousin at the conclusion in an unknown hand, “Presented to Major General Ralph E. Truman by the President of the United States, January 1946,” and signed as president, “Harry S. Truman.” Matted and framed to an overall size of 22 x 26.75. In fine condition, with a uniform shade of mild toning.
On Tuesday, May 8, 1945, recently appointed President Truman held a press conference in the Oval Office to announce Germany’s surrender in World War II. Before an audience of his cabinet, U.S. and British military officials, and congressional leaders, he delivered this proclamation and declared May 13th, 1945, a day of prayer. Offering gratitude to the nearly two billion who served, and remembering the 60-plus million who lost their lives, Truman proudly declared, “United, the peace-loving nations have demonstrated in the West that their arms are stronger by far than the might of the dictators or the tyranny of military cliques that once called us soft and weak.” A beautiful proclamation from this hard-won day of celebration, commemorating victory in Europe and bringing one of the darkest periods of modern history to a close with the added importance of its being presented to his cousin Ralph E. Truman, who was a Commanding General, 35th Division, 1938-1942. Oversized. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.

I specifically requested the Apollo 14 number ‘230’ included with this letter.” Scott requested number 230 to have a consistent collection and the number represented a Mercedes 230SL for which he had aspirations.

RR Auctions X-ray of Neil Armstrong PGA Left EVA space suit boot
Original one-of-a-kind 14 x 17 X-ray of Neil Armstrong’s PGA Left EVA space suit boot, dated July 7, 1969, only nine days before the launch of Apollo 11. This X-ray was taken at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center as a last minute check to see if any foreign objects were present that could compromise the integrity of Armstrong’s pressure suit, such as broken off needle tips used in the suit fabrication and stitching process. These X-rays were taken and inspected by Jack Weakland, who worked in the NASA x-ray lab from 1968 to 1979, and who stored them during and after the Apollo program. Sometime later the agency determined they were no longer needed and permitted Weakland to keep them. In fine condition. A unique item directly connected to man’s first step on the moon, which shows NASA’s incredible attention to detail on this historic mission. RRAuction COA.

RR Auctions Apollo 11 Flown Commemorative Cover
Extremely rare flown Apollo 11 postal cover, from Buzz Aldrin’s personal collection, bearing a color cachet honoring the first manned lunar expedition, postmarked August 11, Webster, Texas, and clearly stamped, "Delayed in quarantine at Lunar Receiving Laboratory M.S.C.-Houston, Texas.” Signed in blue felt tip by Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin. Cover is also notated at the top in black ballpoint by Aldrin “EEA 51, Carried to the Moon on Apollo 11.” Although the crew splashed down July 24, 1969, they and their equipment and belongings were immediately quarantined until August 11, when the covers were able to be postmarked at the Webster, Texas, Post Office. In very fine condition. A superb example, these covers are seldom seen where part of Armstrong's signature is not obscured by the color cachet. These covers represent the pinnacle for any collection of space-related covers. Pre-certified Steve Zarelli and RR Auction COA.

RR Auctions Apollo 11 Data Clip
Flown Data File Clip carried to the lunar surface on Apollo 11. Clip measures approximately 2 x 2.25, and is constructed from two plates of aluminum with a spring mounted between the plates to provide tension to hold the plates closed and the ability to grip flight equipment. A one-inch square Velcro patch is attached above the etched part number which reads: "P/N SEB32100094-301, S/N 1122 ASSY." Accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity from Buzz Aldrin which reads: “This is to certify that the enclosed Data File Clip was flown to the moon. The device held charts and checklists in the Lunar Module. Neil Armstrong, Mike Collins, and I flew the Apollo 11 mission from July 16 to 24, 1969. Neil and I made the first lunar landing on July 20. The clip was stowed in the LM. Part number SEB32100094-301 is listed in the Apollo Stowage List for Mission AS-506 as seen on the copy of page 39 above. The dark material in the Velcro most likely is moon dust from our space suits or other equipment." Upper portion of the certificate has a reproduction of the page mentioned, noting that four clips of this type were stowed onboard Lunar Module Eagle prior to launch. In fine condition. Provenance: Bonham’s, 2010.
The clip was a simple, yet effective tool to secure equipment such as checklist sheets, flight maps, and any loose articles floating in the weightless conditions while traveling to the moon or in the 1/6 gravity environment on the lunar surface. They were placed in the Data Card Kit of the Flight Data File (FDF) with the approximate weight stated as one tenth of a pound for each. Any flight equipment taken and used on the first lunar landing then returned is rare, the more so if available to private hands.
