Just having a trawl through eBay and came across these. Just looking for opinions but am fairly positive they are all autopen:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14438&item=6504708992&rd=1 AP8 crew "signed" Time cover. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14438&item=6504708763&rd=1 AP15 crew "signed" Time cover. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14438&item=6504708513&rd=1 AP13 crew "signed" Time cover.

Many thanks in advance, Derek

Indeed, classic autopen examples.

Since Lovell was on both the Apollo 8 and 13 crews it is easy to compare these two signatures and see just how alike they are.

Thanks guys for confirming what I thought. Amazing how some of these sellers successfully pass Autopens off as authentic.

Pity more wouldn't sell autopens that turned out to be authentic
