Buzz Aldrin Agrees to Do a Commercial for a Commemorative Space Shuttle Coin

(ASTRONAUTS), EDWIN “BUZZ” ALDRIN.
Typed Document Signed, “Buzz Aldrin,” in black ink on a television contract sent by Aldrin’s agent, July 7, 1988, New York, NY, 11” x 8.5”, Choice Extremely Fine. The second man to step on the moon agrees to “perform services for Nash Direct”, in connection with a commercial promotion of “their space shuttle commemorative coin”--for the princely sum of $10,000 and a first-class roundtrip ticket from Los Angeles to New York to tape the commercial. (Aldrin was to receive additional monies based on net television sales of the commemorative coins.) Interesting contract, outstanding content, and large, expressive signature, over 3” long!
