I am new to space collecting and I bought this cover from eBay. Is this a real Buzz Aldrin signature or autopen? Thanks.

Welcome to collectSpace!

To me anyway, it looks like a forgery. It's too shaky and looks like it was written slowly.

Personally, I'd look for another one.

I can't tell you about the autograph if its real or not. But,I believe Rick, who sold it, is a member here on CS.

In my opinion, the signaure on the cover is most likely real...just a little on the sloppy side.

I agree. It resembles closely the signature that I received in my copy of Magnificent Desolation last year at NASM.

I am back home in Brazil, from being in the USA and Africa on a missions trip. I believe this to be authentic, but done in a rush, and sloppy, thus, while I was in the USA, I went through my collection and did a little adjusting. He got a great price. I normally would allow returns, but I was on my way back to Brazil, and that would complicate things. I am loving very much my collecting! Thanks!
