Description: UP FOR AUCTION IS AN AFFORDABLE RARE PERSONAL ARITIFACT FROM NEIL ARMSTRONG'S TEENAGE YEARS!!! This certified Neil Armstrong Purdue quiz sheet is originally from the Armstrong Family!!!! In other words, certified and the real deal. Similar Neil Armstrong Purdue homework sheets have had offers of $1500 and $1750 per sheet in the past few years at Heritage Auctions and a recent sale was for $2000 for two sheets of his Purdue homework or $1000 per sheet. In other words, this is priced to sell. Mankind's greatest achievement and here we have a magnificent rarity from the 1940's that was owned by the legend himself. About 20 items from the Armstrong family collection were auctioned off in the past 5 years that were pre-1950, so personal items of Neil Armstrong pre-1950 are extremely rare. Furthermore, I think most would agree that the older the better for any collectible. There is just that historic feel for anything from the 1940's and before which in my opinion you don't get that same sense with one's from the 60's and 70's.Here are just a few comparables to show the tremendous value here: 1) his Purdue class schedule sold for $6250 about 4 years ago with buyer premium and an offer to buy it for $13500 was submitted last year.2) a small notebook from his engineering class at Purdue sold for $7500 with buyer premium about 5 years ago. The feat of being the first human to touch the moon along with being the first to ever step foot in another world is off the charts and undoubtedly in a class by itself. When your accomplishments and name are at the mountain peak others are comparing their feats and names to you as opposed to you comparing their feats to them. For example, I think most would think that someone holding the all-time home run record in baseball pales in comparison to being the first human to step foot in another world, but if we had to compare Armstrong to another legend it has often been said Christopher Columbus would be a great comparison. The point here is to attest to the historic significance on what is being auctioned here. To own any Neil Armstrong personal artifact from his early years is priceless which only solidify's the magnitude on what is being auctioned here. Do an Ebay search for "Neil Armstrong" and see how many items you find that were actually personal items of the legend himself. You can own what every other person and their brother owns or you can own something truly special that actually belonged to Neil Armstrong himself. Who knows what this might go for in a Heritage Space Auction if professionally framed with a nice presentation. We are going back to the moon and as the hype builds you can almost bet that Apollo 11 collectibles will follow. Yes, we see fads come and go and just ask yourself how many people are going to be collecting Elvis items 20 years from now when all of his fans have died off? Probably not many, but the name "Armstrong" is etched in stone for the ages and undoubtedly will remain so throughout human history, therefore it is probably safe to assume that investing in the right Neil Armstrong items doesn't get any safer or more rewarding when you consider the magnitude of his accomplishment which entails not only being the first human to step foot on the moon, but at the same time being the first human to ever step foot in another world. When you are the first it can never be succumbed to or broken, yes a feat that will live on for eternity and to own something of this magnitude can be ever so rewarding. Without question, the toning of the brown paper undoubtedly gives this piece that ANCIENT Da Vinci type feel which couldn't be more appropriate for a historic legendary figure named Neil Armstrong whose name is right up there with the likes of Columbus, Magellan, Da Vinci etc.. Coming from the 1940's just gives this piece that tremendous historic feel. Finally, the provenance doesn't get any stronger than originating from the Neil Armstrong himself, so its not some story like my grampa was a professor or classmate of Neil's and Neil left this behind in class back in 1948. Furthermore, it has been encapsulated by the OFFICIAL AUTHENTICATION GRADING COMPANY THAT WAS RESPONSIBLE for grading hundreds of items from the Neil Armstrong Family Collection.WITH US GOING BACK TO THE MOON AND ALL THE HYPE THAT WILL FOLLOW ONE CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW HIGH THE DEMAND WILL GO FOR RARE PERSONALLY OWNED NEIL ARMSTRONG ITEMS.
