Does that mean the covers are fake and the signatures are real or everything is bogus? Thanks. |

The Riser covers have fake postmarks, seals, and autographs. The only real part is the embossed airmail envelopes that Riser used for his forgeries. I do not know enough about Nebel or Oberth's signatures, but the von Braun is suspect to me. |

In my opinion, the seller in question is a reputable seller who makes a good faith effort to sell authentic items. His primary focus is sports memorabilia, but it looks like he got fooled by a few items outside of his area of expertise. I contacted him and he quickly removed the Riser items. |

Steve, I would suggest the seller relists the items but clearly mark them as Riser fakes. These are still worth selling and on a good day may bring more than you think. |
