5x3.5 Color satin finish vintage photograph signed in black felt tip ink by Charles T. Kowal. In excellent condition. (1940-2011) Charles Thomas Kowal was an American astronomer known for his observations and discoveries in the Solar System. As a staff astronomer at Caltech's Mount Wilson and Palomar Mountain observatories between 1961 and 1984, he found the first of a new class of Solar System objects, the centaurs, discovered two moons of the planet Jupiter and discovered or co-discovered a number of asteroids, comets, and supernovae. He was awarded the James Craig Watson Medal for his contributions to astronomy in 1979.This lot came from the Jim Wiggins collection we purchased in July 2022. Jim Wiggins accumulated the most unique and valuable autograph collection over a period of 70-plus years. He obtained his collection either in person or by writing to persons of fame and notoriety. Comes with a full Letter of Authenticity from Todd Mueller Authentics.
