We are Gene Cernan's #1 dealer and business partner. Gene will be flying his plane to Tucson in June to bring us some more items for the Cernan Garage Sale
ORDERS NOT ACCEPTED
WITHOUT SIGNED ORDER FORMS
Too many customers are leaving it to us to fill out their order forms. We'd rather you do it, as we are called upon to assume credit card numbers, shipping addresses, placement, color, value and other preferences. It is not like taking a phone order, and uses valuable time. PLEASE take the time to fill out your forms completely.
5 item maximum
There is a five item limit, unless other arrangements are made. This signing is meant for collectors. No duplicate items. Sorry, no covers or philatelic items.
Shipping
Shipping is included with the price for flat items under one pound. Boxed items or books must get a quote, include prepaid waybill or include credit card number.
Right of refusal
Capt. Cernan reserves the right to refuse to sign your piece. We will make sure you get a refund or aren't charged should this occur. We are clearing unusual or controversial requests through Capt. Cernan ahead of time, so we minimize last-minute refusals.
He will NOT sign
Capt. Cernan won't sign SpaceShots trading cards, nor In the Beginning or any other Alan Bean prints. Nothing against Alan, in fact he signed the next Bean print, but didn't and won't sign any of the others. No philatelic items.
Signing Idiosyncracies
Capt. Cernan has highly stylized handwriting, so lengthy inscriptions may be hard to read by someone who doesn't know what it's supposed to say. So be forewarned. Gene tends to sign large if given the space, and this presents problems with fine point metallic pens. The stroke length and speed often results in gaps, as fine point metallic pens cannot keep up the flow. We'd suggest medium or large point metallic pens for larger signatures.(Sharpies are no problem)
Third party authentication
None of the astronauts we have had so far will sign flown items from a third party. This implies endorsement and authentication. Unless it's from the astronaut's own PPK, they are reluctant to sign.
Books
Please remove the dust jackets when you send hardback books.
Pens
You can send your own pens, but we do this a lot, so we have every kind of sharpie, fine point, regular on hand, as well as metallic pens in broad or fine point gold or silver. If there's a pen you need to specifically match, send it along.
Photos for Sale
We will sell unsigned versions of our photos for $13/8x10 and $50/16x20. You can just add them to the order form. Of course you can also provide your own items. See our selection of Cernan photos HERE. NOTE: "Home by Christmas" and panoramas not available unsigned
Deadline
June 14 is the deadline. We will start accepting shipments immediately. If you have an unusual item that needs Capt. Cernan's approval, we strongly suggest letting us know early.

The Cernan order form can be downloaded as a PDF file with Adobe Acrobat (free). We can also fax or mail.
