I have a photo autographed by the Apollo 13 crew (Lovell, Swigert and Haise) and was wondering if the autographs are autopens. The Swigert doesn't look like a Swigert photo I have with an autopen signature. Thanks.

Can you share a photo or scan of the autographs? Click here for instructions on how to post an image, or you can post the web address (URL) were the photo is displayed.

All autopen signatures.

I have the same photo but the autographs seems made by different pens (different colors). Do you think they are authentic? How much could be valued? Thanks.

Some Apollo crew photos do contain different AP-autograph patterns, unfortunately, all the signatures from the two above Apollo 13 photos are machine-generated autopens.

All times are CT (US)
