Project Gemini Space Suit

Between 1963 and 1965, the David Clark Company produced a Gemini G-2C-4 full high altitude pressure suit, including an inner pressure suit and an outside cover layer, as well as a GH-2C-7 helmet, GG-2C-16 gloves made to fit Pete Conrad, and GB-5C-9 boots made to fit Frank Borman, all for NASA.

Gemini G-2C-4 full pressure suit, approximately 75 inches tall from boot to helmet; neoprene rubber inner pressure layer, white HT Nylon outer cover layer, with pressure-sealing entry zipper running from back of neck down to just above crotch, original NASA meatball patch at left chest, left shoulder with replaced American flag patch, three anodized aluminum umbilical life support outlets, label at nape. Gloves with adjustable lacing in white and aluminized (silver) HT Nylon, connecting to suit with anodized aluminum sealed rings with sealed bearing (left hand blue, right hand red), label inside each glove at wrist. White HT nylon boots with solid rubber soles, laces and zipper closure, with two red buckle-straps, label inside each boot. Helmet composed of fiberglass and epoxy with a changeable polycarbonate visor, sheepskin inside lining, and suede earpads, and a label on the inside.

Gemini G-2C-4 Full High Altitude Pressure Suit was sold for $162,500 in 2018 and ranked seventh in the list of most expensive space travel mementoes. The space suit was complete and authentic in every way, and only a few space suits like it make it out of captivity and into private hands.
