THE APOLLO THREAD (make the autographica successful)
Pistol Pete replied to Flashstorm's topic in Autographica 22
I really hope they can secure Dave Scott for October in London! 2 Astronauts I really want to meet are Jim Lovell Apollo 8 and 13 Fred Haise Apollo 13 It's the 45th anniversary of Apollo 13 this year! Would be brilliant to see one or even both of them! -

Brilliant guest! Someone who I've wanted to meet for ages! -
It was very quiet today. I'm used to seeing the Apollo astronauts with big queues, but there were no big queues today. Was a bit disappointed with the Al Worden lecture (no fault of his). It was delayed for about 20 mins because they couldn't get the laptop to show on the projector. In the end he started without it. Eventually they got it working, although adverts for the Hilton hotel kept popping up and obscuring his slide show. He was a very engaging speaker with a great sense humour. I had to leave early because I had a photoshoot with Roberto Duran. So for £30, I had a long wait and a short lecture. On the plus side, It was great to meet Tom Stafford and Al Worden and my Photoshoots turned out great! Great to meet Roberto. I'm a big boxing fan, so when he was announced, I was hoping for a few more boxing guests. One of my highlights from the show was talking to Carol Cleveland. Such a lovely lady. Had a talk about the Monty Python o2 shows and got a photo with her at the table. Overall I enjoyed myself but something did seem to be missing this year. There wasn't quite the same buzz as there usually is. I hope it returns next year.

Thanks for the replies. Yes my covering letter says the same. Was just double checking as normally the photo tickets are sent out and wasn't too sure of the procedure. Hope theres not too much of a queue to collect the tickets. Less than a week to go. Very much looking forward to meeting Tom Stafford, Al Worden and Roberto Duran!

Can anyone confirm that all photoshoot tickets will be picked up on the day? I bought some photoshoots and entry tickets plus postage a month or so ago and received only the entry ticket. Do I just print out my confirmation email and hand it to someone on the desk?

Pistol Pete replied to showmasters's topic in London Film and Comic Con 2014
Great guest! Im new to the comic guest side of things. How does it work? Do they charge for signing comics? -
George would be great!

Hey there Ted thanks for your post. I'm a bit of a late comer to Autographica. My 1st one was 2012, so I've missed Lovell, Haise, Scott, Stafford etc. Heres hoping it's not too late! I just feel lucky that I've been able to meet as many Apollo astronauts as I have done in a short space of time. I never dreamed that i'd have the chance to meet them!

It must be getting harder as each show goes by to get Apollo guests over. They're all in their 80's now. However, it would be great to meet Fred Haise Apollo 13 Dave Scott Apollo 15 Al Worden Apollo 15 There are others of course, but realistically, Michael Collins, John Young, Jim Lovell and Harrison Schmitt aren't signing in public anymore and Alan Bean, Buzz, Gene Cernan, Charlie Duke, Walt Cunningham, Dick Gordon and Ed Mitchell, have all attended in recent years. Any of the Apollo guys including Mission Control would be brilliant! So far, I have been lucky to meet many Apollo Astronauts because of Autographica. It's a great show and long may it continue

Priscilla would be a great guest to get!
