Re: Lunar Lander Exhibit from USSRC in Alabama up for auction on September 3, 2003!

No, never found out. They are supposed to eventually post what the lots went for on their web site, but the new job is keeping me offline except just to check my mail.

If I find out, I'll post the results.

Cheers,
