Astronaut Gus Grissom’s letter slamming John Glenn doesn’t sell

CONCORD, NH — A letter written by Mercury 7 astronaut Gus Grissom that exposes resentment over the pick of John Glenn as the first American to orbit the Earth has failed to sell at auction.

The October 1961 letter to his mother had a high bid of $13,155 in the online sale run by RR Auction of Amherst, NH. Company officials estimated it could bring $80,000.

In the letter, Grissom writes: "All of us are mad because Glenn was picked."

Grissom died with two other astronauts in a launchpad fire while preparing for an Apollo mission in 1967.
