Bonhams’ Space History Sale includes spacesuits, memorabilia, and a Game Boy flown in space

Bonhams’ upcoming Space History Sale — happening May 5th in Manhattan — is full of items so as to make any space geek reconsider their current spending priorities, but we couldn’t help but notice one particular item that hits a bit in the direction of home. Jumbled in with spacesuits expected to fetch upwards of $100,000 and other various memorabilia from both the usa and Soviet space programs on this, an entirely ordinary Nintendo Game Boy (complete with Tetris, without a doubt ) that accompanied cosmonaut Aleksandr A. Serebrov on Soyuz mission TM-17 in 1993. Interested? The estimate is pegged at a somewhat reasonable $1,500 to $2,000, but we now have a sneaking suspicion Bonhams could be underestimating the desire of a lot of individuals who are both space and game nerds (we’re speaking as one ourselves, without a doubt ). Hit up the source link below to try everything up for auction.
