Aerospace Collectibles
I found these drinking glasses in an old cupboard at my parent's house. My Mom says that they were giveaways when they filled up at the local gas station. They depict launch vehicles of the era on the front and stats on the reverse. I have Mercury 6, Gemini 4, and Apollos 7 & 8.
This got me thinking about what other space related collectibles I might have around. The pencil holders on my workbench are spent nozzles from sidewinder missile test firings and in the closet somewhere with my old scout patches is a Young & Crippen Columbia mission patch. I got this patch from my cousin who spent his entire career at NASA as an engineer. I don't know if there is any difference between the ones from the gift shop and ones attached to flight suits, but I always thought it was more genuine because he gave it to me. |
