I have a question about the value of different forms of Armstrong signatures.

I've got a pretty good idea of the price for a signed cover, photo, etc. This is the "typical" signature you see with the "abbreviated, squiggly" Armstrong.

However, I've also seen documents, i.e. letters, checks, etc., in which Neil has signed with his full (legible) last name. Are these "full" signatures more valuable than the typical abbreviated one, or is the value dependent only on the item being signed?

Good question. In my opinion, they should (would?) be worth a lot more. He had a great handwriting style and the "Atg" when you've seen a good "Armstrong" is like chalk and cheese.

I always preferred the early Armstrong signatures myself for example his early business suit lithos but those are much less expensive than the wss litho.

And of course, it will depend on which item was actually signed by him, which influences the demand of his...
