Nice lot of (4) Signed Russian Cosmonauts Items. This collection of Soviet-era cosmonauts features three signed photographs and one signed card. The first photograph, measuring 6" x 4", features four members of the first Cosmonaut group, Yuri Gagarin, Andriyan Nikolayev, Pavel Popovich, Gherman Titov, standing shoulder to shoulder, in uniform. The second, measuring 4.25" x 6.75", shows female cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova (first woman in space and wife of fellow cosmonaut Andriyan Nikolayev) from the neck up. The third photograph, 4.25" x 7.25", features Valery Bykovsky, in uniform. Bykovsky set an endurance record of five days for a solo space flight which still stands today. A quality Cosmonaut quartet of items including, amongst several others, the much sought-after first man in Space: Yuri Gagarin.
