I'm David Frohman, President of Peachstate Historical
Consulting, Inc., and I would like to
welcome you to our corporate website!
Since 1997, Peachstate has grown into one of the
world's premiere specialists and dealers
of American space artifacts and memorabilia.
Within the museum section of this site, you will see
many treasures sold by Peachstate
since 1997, including some of the most historic
artifacts of America's space program!
Over the decades, we have bought and sold millions of
dollars worth of space material,
and in doing so helped endow some of the world's
finest private space collections.
The data in this website is information that
Peachstate considers accurate, and in many
cases was furnished directly to us by the original
pioneer astronauts and their families.
However, the field of space collectibles is a
relatively new area of collecting, and as such
very little universally-accepted reference material
exists.
Therefore, while I must caution you to apply "Caveat
Emptor" to this website's contents,
I hope that you will find the contents of this website both fascinating and enlightening.
Over the years, I have enjoyed making the
acquaintance of hundreds of people in our
wonderful field, ranging from our clientele to
various astronauts and their families.
While it is impossible to thank everyone personally
here, I would like to acknowledge
the invaluable contributions made to our firm by
certain individuals.
First and foremost, thank you to Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Dr.
Edgar D. Mitchell, Alan L. Bean,
General Charles M. Duke, Jr., Charles
"Pete" Conrad, Jr., and Eugene A. Cernan.
Their contributions, both personally and
professionally, remain beyond measure!
I also wish to thank Joan Aldrin, Barbara Cernan,
Dotty Duke, Nancy Conrad, Leslie Bean,
Linda Gordon, Sue Bean, Lois Aldrin, Jan Cernan, and Claire Johnson.
Thanks to Daniel Gruenbaum of the Kennedy Space
Center, Max Ary of the "Omniplex",
and Chris Orwoll and Jim Remar of the Kansas
Cosmosphere & Space Center.
I would also like to recognize our wonderful legal
team, including attorneys Armen Vartian
of Los Angeles and Thomas J. Hamrick, Jr. of New
Orleans.
Peachstate is also fortunate to work with an
exceptional accounting team that includes
Alan Epstein, CPA of Atlanta, and David Zurbriggen,
CPA of San Antonio.
I would also like to recognize Ashley Myers of our
technical support staff!
Finally, although it is impossible to acknowledge all
of our treasured clients in this forum,
I wish to recognize several noted space collectors
whom I'm proud to call my friends.
They include Lawrence L. McGlynn, David Karpeles, and
James F. Ruddy, and I'll always
remain grateful to them for their many years of
friendship, support, and insight.
In conclusion, please enjoy the website, "Ad
Astra", and God Bless!
