Those are dope unless you need the money or aren’t interested I’d keep
I assumed he passed? I am really sorry for your loss.
Can I ask how old your grandfather was? What year was he born?
These are impressive collections.
That is a pretty awesome collection of memorabilia, I’d certainly hold on to it if I had it.
This is the type of stuff you keep within a family. Don’t sell.
That looks like something that will require serious investigation.
The cigarettes go for $10 an empty box, $100 unopened.
Absolutely keep it. I’d personally would be proud to own it.
Definitely worth keeping. Lots of history there.
If you DO decide to sell it, try not to piece-meal it out.. if poss, perhaps contact your local museum / school and see if they might be interested in adding it to their collection
Stamps are usually worth a lot less than people think. Most of them are worth less than a buck, especially if they have been postmarked. I would keep them since they belonged to a loved one.
I thought this was the escape from tarkov looking at the first pic only.
That’s an amazing collection . I collect stamps, especially Apollo-Soyuz era stamps. What you have is well curated and could definitely be worth some money, but would be worth more as a family heirloom. I think. I’m jealous. My collection is far inferior.
Don’t get rid of it. I’m not sure how much you can get for it, but it’s *so* friggin‘ cool. I would never part with it.
I would call the New Mexico Museum of Space History in Alamagordo. Or the Smithsonian.
I would reach out to the Virginia Air and Space museum (the official visitor center for NASA Langley) even if you keep them they would love to see this, and if it’s something you don’t wish to keep they may be interested in adding it to the museum for others to enjoy as well.
I’d be googling like crazy to see what you have. I’d keep it. If you have absolutely no interest in it, see if a museum or collector is interested.
That’s an amazing find. If it were me I’d definitely keep it but I love space exploration and history. If you do not have any interest in it find a young person in your family to donate to, stuff like this can change a child’s life.
If you really want to sell it I’m sure there’s a buyer and it’s likely worth a decent penny.
The Smithsonian might be interested in some of this…
I would totally keep it and the first time Antiques Roadshow came to town, I would haul it all in for the experts to see.
Happy to get you in touch with the US Space and Rocket center musuem if you’re interested in donating them.
It seems like r/philately or something similar might be a better place to ask about it
Those Apollo cigarettes are common in the videogame Escape from Tarkov, I bet they’d get a kick out of it if you posted that pic over in their sub.
It’s always weird when people find something that belonged to their grandparents and their first thought is “How much can I get for this?” or “Should I just throw this away?”
I’ve been dead broke, I’ve been in tiny studio apartments, but I’ve still lugged around a chest, yes, a fucking chest full of medals, letters, a Navy uniform, and some other stuff that was my grandfathers. When I die, I want someone to keep the things that were important to me. I certainly don’t want my descendants to go “How much can we get for this?”
I wouldn’t hand anything over to a government administration right now.
If you decide to part with it, wait a while until the world stabilizes.
If I were you I’d try to contact some knowledgeable person at a space flight museum, or even someone at NASM in Washington.
You can trade the apollo cigarettes for quite a few tank helmet NVGs
