Uncommon lot of two photos originating from the secret Moscow facility where the Cosmonauts live and work called the Star City: a glossy, lightly-trimmed 4 x 5.25 photo of the first Cosmonaut, signed by Yuri Gagarin in fountain pen; and a satin-finish 3.75 x 5.75 photo of the second Cosmonaut, signed by German Titov in ink. Both photos are affixed to a blue card to the overall size of 12 x 8.25 in what appears to be a child’s scrapbook. In overall very good condition, with scattered areas of fading to the card and collector’s notations affecting the edge of the photos. R&R COA.
