Here's my new favourite : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2199585161&category=14438 Beside the fact that most signatures are Autopens I love the descripton : "You will notice cost of postcard was 4 cents as a way of dating signatures." Interesting approach ! "Autographs verified by experts in Manhattan." Oh yes, my autographs are also verified by people on earth ! "Some astronauts died during take-off mishap" Guess history needs to be rewritten here ! "and signatures can never be duplicated." Since they are Autopen - why not ?? (if someone still has the patterns...) Sh** there should be an exam before you start selling space autographs on ebay !

This one is on its third visit to eBay, I believe. I think it was originally listed at $1500, so on that basis if the seller relists it twice more it should be reduced to its real value of <$1 <ROFL>Paul |

From what I can see from the photo-scan, all are autopens except Glenn and Carpenter--but Shepard is a secretarial from the Mercury era as I am positive of this, based on my opinion. In many instances, when we see a Mercury 7 signed piece from the early days--if the signatures are not all genuine--usually they fall into this category of Glenn and Carpenter being authentic whereas Shepard is either an autopen or secretarial. | |
