VOLKOV FROM COSM. CHRETIEN (FRANCE)' Description maxuta_id="011016" LETTER TO MIR COSM. VOLKOV FROM COSM. CHRETIEN (FRANCE)    Cosmonaut Alexander Volkov "space mail" collection The letter to A. Volkov, S. Krikalev (Soyuz TM-13/Mir) from cosmonaut J-L. Chretien (France) This is the letter to cosmonauts Alexander Volkov and Sergey Krikalev (Soyuz TM-13/Mir) from cosmonaut J-L. Chretien (France). Mr. Chretien was the crew member of Soyuz TM-7 with Mr. Volkov and also met Mr. Krikalev in Star City. So, maybe that's why Mr. Chretien begins his letter with "Hello, family..". It was sent from Paris in extra cover because the applied one does not have the French stamps. The cover and the letter have the stamps of Mir and Star City. This is very friendly letter in Russian (not native language of Mr. Chretien) with many mistakes. Mr. Chretien invites both cosmonauts Volkov and Krikalev to visit him after the flight, celebrate that and think about the future. Close to the text translation: Dear Family! Hello! From Ema, Loreen, me and all the Bretons who can't wait for you. I think about you very often, and I know that our friends fly above our heads. My friends and me have been waiting for you, we will celebrate your return together and think about the future. I kiss you strongly and I do not forget you! See you soon! Comments to the text: The letter is written in Russian with many mistakes. COA: Personally addressed certificate of authenticity from Mr. Volkov will be given to buyer according to wishes upon request. Happy buying! Powered by eBay Turbo ListerThe free listing tool.
