Author	Topic: Help authenticating Apollo 13 crew signed cover
billewald Member Posts: 89 From: Stafford, VA, USA Registered: Jan 2012	posted 01-28-2015 08:56 AM Can anyone give me some thoughts if these signatures are hand signed or an autopen? I have not seen an autopen with Swigert extending his crossed "T" below the signature. In the Haise I have not seen the "d" touch the "F" in "Fred". Thanks for you help. The envelope is postmarked 5/16/1970 from Houston.
