Here is a close up picture of the sign:

And here is a picture of the monitor showing footage of Apollo 15 or 16 astronauts using them.

And just for fun, I'm going to show a pic of a moon rockhounding backpack.

Geez, Don... I was in a pickle with your second answer and Billy wouldn't let me give it to ya because he said they weren't mechanical collecting tools, but hand collecting tools. So, I had to steer ya all in the hand collecting direction...LOL.

Congratulations rons! PM me your address and you get the goodies.

Don, Snuffy, Brian and Fossilman... PM me your addresses too. You're all getting consolation prizes!

Thanks for the fun guys!

Got my box on Monday. Lots of goodies. Some fossil bearing agate from the Washington beaches, some fossil bearing compact sandstone, a nicely banded sedimentary that appears hard enough to cut and cab, Some tumbling size agates from Washington beaches and a couple of wire wraps which my wife immediately latched on to. Thank you Jo. I'll send you some slabs of the material after I cut it.
