Disclaimer: I have no connection with this, and assume no liability whatsoever, but thought you might find it interesting, since it goes to the core of the Starman mythology.
What could be the ultimate Starman memento may become available soon. A Kickstarter project has raised enough funds to produce several commemoratives to align with the 40th anniversary of the launch of the Voyager satellites next year.
$10 gets you the Voyager Golden Record enamel pin of the iconic diagram from the front of the Voyager Golden Record aluminum case. (Available April 2017)
$25 gets you an Art Print and Digital Download, also available April 2017:
* Lithograph of the Voyager Golden Record cover diagram, gold metallic ink on archival paper, 12" x 12"
* Full-color plastic digital download card for all audio of the Voyager Golden Record (MP3 or FLAC formats)
$98 gets the ultimate: the Voyager Golden Record Box Set of the complete recordings and music discs. The recordings with be made on gold colored vinyl to emulate the original gold record, although you don’t need to have a legacy record player hanging around to listen to them, since you do get the digital download as well. Estimated delivery will be Aug 2017 and ships to anywhere in the world:
* Cloth-covered box with gold foil inlay
* Three translucent gold, heavyweight vinyl LPs in poly-lined paper sleeves
* Three old-style tip-on jackets, black ink and gold foil
* Hardback, full-color book
* Lithograph of Voyager Golden Record cover diagram, gold metallic ink on archival paper, 12" x 12"
* Full-color plastic digital download card for all audio of the Voyager Golden Record (MP3 or FLAC formats)
The project funds on October 20, and it is not clear if any of these will offered beyond that date. 20% of the proceeds will be donated to the Carl Sagen Institute at Cornell University.
