T O P I C R E V I E WEdJust a warning - there's a "flown" Apollo 11 flag going for $510 on ebay, with signatures of the crew - which are easily identifiable as autopens. I've emailed the seller to suggest a desription revision, and provided him/her with a link to collectspace.com's autopen reference page. I hope they make the time to do the right thing before someone looses a great deal of change. Doubt item is flown-but how would one know? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13903&item=3605333440&rd=1 Robert PearlmanI just looked at this flag and I agree with Ed, there are reasons to be hesitant. The placement of the autopens (quite sloppy in my opinion), the odd font and inscription (no personalization) and the fact the flag looks brand new (no glue stains, even at the corners) would make me think twice before bidding. Does that mean its not real? No, not necessarily. But if it was, this was certainly not one of the better looking presentations issued by NASA.
