Dave Scott's (Christopher Abbott) Gemini production-used space suit from Damien Chazelle's biographical drama First Man. Scott wore his space suit as the Pilot of Gemini 8 which was central to the film's plot.

This suit was crafted by spacesuit artist Ryan Nagata at the specific request of the First Man production team; it was available as a production back-up and lighting stand-in, but was not believed to have been used on film. It consists of a white polycarbonate and metal helmet with a clear visor, yellow padding, and a metal neck ring; a white blended-fabric zip-up bodysuit with blue polyester lining, nylon straps, a pressure gauge with a printed decal face, and metal buckles, wrist rings, and hose connectors, as well as "D.R. SCOTT," Gemini 8, NASA, and United States patches; white and yellow gloves marked "S"; and white boots with gray soles. The life preserver harness included was not used in the production, it is for display only.

Also included are a pair of yellow rubber shoes, an additional Mercury helmet visor, white rubber tubing, and a gray nylon harness with resin buckles and silver-color fabric pouches added to complete the costume. The helmet exhibits scuffing, while the bodysuit exhibits some staining from production.

Estimate: $6,000 - 8,000
