Anyone contemplating purchasing this Ebay lot please obtain images enlarged.

Collins in my opinion is an autopen, perfect match for me.

Genuine seller who has been led astray it seems.

He has been notified with an autopen example that matches so will see if he withdraws or discloses this issue.

Good luck, M.

I can't see the Collins or Aldrin very well in the auction scans, but there is a fairly good scan of the Armstrong and based on that scan I have no doubt that it is a forgery.

I hope any potential buyer checks these pages from time to time as I agree with both of you.

Won't even talk about the patches ....

The C.O.A. is for the Buzz autograph only. This is obviously assembled out of individually purchased items and taken to a framing agency. The seller seems to be reacting to the assault of emails and is probably a little disgruntled to find out he was burned on the Collins autopen and the forged Neil. He may have some bucks tied up in the framing also. I won't lose any sleep over it because I wouldn't bid on it anyway.

I agree with Scott- no go on the Armstrong sig.
