Just seen this awful Apollo 11 item whilst trawling online auctions in UK. Even with my limited knowledge I can't believe an auction house could sell this as a signed item. |

Ruined a red-serial numbered glossy. |

Obviously all done in the same hand. I love how the Collins and Aldrin both have the same tail at the end. Hopefully, the red-serial is a fake too and that wasn't ruined. |

I have sent an email to the auction house suggesting that they compare the signatures to known examples before putting something like this up for sale. |

They even added an inscription and dedicated it to an individual to make it seem more authentic... that is very sneaky. |

First one I've seen where Neil's last name was an algebraic equation (j=7g).It also looks like they tried to change Aldrin's first name to "Bugsy". I don't know what they were thinking with "Mchal" for Collins. |

Yes, I also thought of contacting the auction house, never even consider buying anything from that "house" ever.Still can salvage the glossy, though not for any price. |
