eBay seller autographsforsale1969 has a very nice John Young/Michael Collins letter and signed Young photo listed. Any idea if the signatures look authentic? See ebay item ID 261320892686

If you go to astroautopens.com it looks like all three autographs appear to be autopens.

Yes, the signatures are autopens. Still a nice lithograph and period letter.

Thanks for the quick advice, guys. I did some research at the autopen site, and I see exactly what you mean -- glad I found this out now before I got in too deep!

The same seller also has signed photos of Grissom, White, Schirra, Swigert, Cooper, Glenn, and Conrad. I guess by posting this I'm eliminating my chances of picking up a bargain, but the Grissom and White would be extremely valuable if authentic.
