Bulgaria: Yet Unknown Gagarin Autograph Uncovered in Bulgaria

A before unknown autograph of first man in space, Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, has been found in a hotel in Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

The autograph is an entry in the hotel's guestbook, made by Gagarin back in 1961, writes Russian site polit.ru.

It was inadvertently discovered by hotel officers while reviewing the book, says the edition.

After his flight in space, Gagarin made many international tours, including in Bulgaria, where he visited several cities, including Plovdiv.

He was made a honorary citizen of Plovdiv and drank a coffee in the unnamed hotel's lobby, at which time he probably left the message.
