When Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon, he famously proclaimed, "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. ”

One area company has taken a step of its own to preserve Armstrong’s legacy. Lakewood Ranch-based Collectibles Authentication Guaranty has certified artifacts from a collection of Armstrong and his family. At an auction in November, about 1,000 items from the collection took in over $5.2 million.
