- one of Alan Bean's personally-used studio paintbrushes, measuring 12˝ long, smeared in purple, blue, and red paint, and signed on the shaft in black felt tip, "Alan Bean, Apollo 12." Matted and framed to an overall size of 21 x 6, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Novaspace.
- a limited edition color 18 x 24 giclee print on stretched canvas of an Alan Bean painting entitled 'We Came In Peace For All Mankind,' numbered 27/95, signed in black ink, "Alan Bean." The print also bears a facsimile autograph inherent to the original painting. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from the publisher, The Greenwich Workshop.
- a limited edition color 11 x 12 giclee print on stretched canvas of an Alan Bean painting entitled 'Some Tools of Our Trade,' numbered 79/125, signed in black ink, "Alan Bean." The print also bears a facsimile autograph inherent to the original painting. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from the publisher, The Greenwich Workshop.
In overall fine condition. Bean would famously mix moondust into his paints, and use his lunar tools to make texture impressions in his artwork. His works have appeared in books such as Painting Apollo: First Artist on Another World and Apollo: An Eyewitness Account.
