A document dealer finds a Gemini 11 lithograph marked unclassified in a NASA engineer's archive.

Episode description / show notes:
Ed Wilson is a rare book and document dealer, not a circuit UFO lecturer. Three years ago he purchased the personal NASA collection of Scott H. Simpkinson, lead engineer of the Space Task Group, and the binders kept by Emily Erdel.

In this conversation with Matthew Heines he lays out:

  • How the archive was found at auction in Ohio
  • 31 binders and 568 original NASA photographs
  • The Gemini 11 lithograph marked UNCLASSIFIED
  • Why he believes it is an NPIC-style sanitized briefing sheet
  • The public NASA frame he maps it to: S-66-54585
  • Heritage Auctions sale of part of the collection
  • Paper analysis he commissioned

Wilson's line: don't believe him, believe the documents.
