Need help identifying two signatures on these Association of Space Explorers (ASE) 7th and 9th Planetary Congress covers.

On the 7th, who is the second down on left and on the 9th who is directly below Walt Cunningham? I've already checked the ASE poster signature lists but can't match them. Thank you for any help.

7th: Probably Yegorov. He was there, I talked to him, and he wanted to know directions for a shop selling electronic goods to buy something for his family.

9th: Jean-Loup Chrétien, first Frenchman in space.

This is great! Boris Yegorov Voskhod 1 was the first physician in space ironically died of a heart attack age 56. Jean-Loup Chretien flew on Soyuz T-6, Soyuz TM-7 / Mir Aragatz / Soyuz TM-6, and STS-86 Thank you again for the information.

i cross-checked both of the signatures in doubt and can confirm the identification from our Belgian friend for the cover of the 9th ASE Planetary Congress. Indeed it is the signature of Jean-Loup Chrétien.

The other one is a little bit tricky because the signature of the 7th Planetary Congress differs a little bit from a reference signature of Yegorov that I found elsewhere. The first letter is almost identical and the last part is slightly different.

But in the end I would also agree in the estimation of my Belgian neighbour.
