I was wondering if cS members could tell me what they think about a Swigert autograph I own. My specific concern is that it's a little smaller than Swigert's usual signature.

The thin tailing off of the J in Jack indicates, to me anyway, that this is a good signature. It is not the one shown in the 1989 booklet "Astronaut Autopens" by Vaughan and Gutzke.

Can you post a larger closeup?

I only know how to post the 400-pixel-wide photos on cS, but I'll e-mail you a very high-res image of it.
