I obtained a Jim Irwin WSS photo with an authentic autograph and autopen signatures (no personalizations) in the early 80s and I am leaning towards a depreciated value because it has both signatures.

Similarly, I have an Apollo 15 crew photo with autopens of the entire crew that Jim Irwin signed. Would it be worth it to have Dave Scott and Al Worden sign it despite the autopens? It would be my only chance at getting a complete crew photo for that amazing mission.

If it's the Irwin portrait litho you definitely should not do it as it would kill the value. If it's Irwin on the Moon you should do what you want as it has little value. I hope that helps.

Yes, it is the Irwin WSS portrait that is authentically signed and autopen-signed. I also have the same on the Apollo 15 crew photo and would like to add Scott and Worden if possible.
