I'd be interested in any opinions on this Neil Armstrong signed photo on eBay (322177648634). I am not sure about the signature, but it is the handwriting that has me most concerned.Thanks in advance. |

I have a few "Best Wishes" samples on file and this one looks OK to me. Just my opinion. |

Multiple aspects of both the signature and inscription concern me. I'd stay away from it. |

Both the inscription and the signature have serious problems that go well beyond occasional atypical traits. In my opinion, there is very little chance of this being authentic. By "very little," I mean none. |

It sold for $1551. Wonder what an authentic signature would have made. |

A 100% no-doubt fake. Someone flushed $1,551 down the tubes. |

For kicks and giggles, check out the seller's name. |

Thanks for all of your replies, much appreciated. I was not bidding but saw it while still relatively low priced, and the fact that it was inscribed but unpersonalised caught my attention. In my fairly limited experience I have not seen too many Armstrong signatures that are inscribed but unpersonalised (other than mission).Thanks again. |
