Today I had the privilege to review a photo signed by the doomed crew of Apollo 1 - Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee. Apollo 1 crew photos are quite uncommon and very desirable.

Wow. I can't imagine there being many of those out there. Top notch piece.

Not many. Maybe 2 - 4 come to market a year. Often the same ones being passed around. My sense is they signed a stack in one or two sittings. Typically you see the same pens used by all three, and you may see a different pen used for the dedication. So it is as if there was a signed stack, and when one of the Astros wanted to dedicate one, they pulled one from the stack and wrote the dedication... often with a different pen.
