Buzz Aldrin’s Signed Books: A Celestial Collection

An Astronaut’s Literary Legacy

Buzz Aldrin, a name synonymous with space exploration and lunar history, has left an indelible mark not only on the moon but also in the literary world. His books, enriched with the artistry of Wendell Minor, offer a glimpse into the mind of one of the most celebrated astronauts of our time. We are thrilled to present two such remarkable pieces of sports memorabilia that transcend the realms of space and literature.

Hardcover “Look to the Stars”

The first item in this celestial collection is the hardcover edition of “Look to the Stars”. This book, authored by Buzz Aldrin and beautifully illustrated by Wendell Minor, is a testament to Aldrin’s passion for space exploration and education. The inner cover page bears Aldrin’s signature in blue ink, which, in our expert opinion, rates an impressive 9 out of 10. The book itself is in Near Mint-Mint (NM-MNT) condition, with only minor wear visible on the dust jacket. This piece is not just a book; it is a gateway to the stars, inviting readers to explore the universe through Aldrin’s eyes.

Paperback “Reaching for the Moon”

Complementing the hardcover is the paperback edition of “Reaching for the Moon”, another masterpiece by Buzz Aldrin with illustrations by Wendell Minor. This book is also signed by Aldrin on the inner cover page in blue ink, with the signature earning a near-perfect rating of 10. The book is preserved in NM-MNT condition, with only slight bends to one corner, adding character to this cherished item. Together, these books offer a unique opportunity to own a piece of history, capturing the essence of Aldrin’s journey from Earth to the moon.

  • Exquisite Condition: Both books are in NM-MNT condition, ensuring their preservation for future generations.
  • Authenticity: Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from JSA, affirming the genuineness of Aldrin’s signatures.
