Thanks for your kind and always illuminating help. Can anyone help me on identifying the signatures on these covers and if they are genuine?

Soyuz TM-22: I cannot identify all the signatures. Is this flown?

Soyuz T-6: I cannot identify all the signatures

Soyuz 22: Bykovskij, Aksënov?

You should get yourself a reference book.

Walter Hopferwieser's handbook on pioneer rocket mail and cosmic mail has an entire annex of more than 500 autographs that could you help you there.

Earlier, there was also a so-called Sanabria Autograph Identification Guide. It is no longer in print, but can occasionally be found on the market (eBay and others).

Some identifications here:

  • TM-22: Yuri Gidzenko, Sergei Avdeyev, Thomas Reiter, Anatoli Solovyov, Nikolai Budarin. And yes, it was flown.

  • Soyuz T6: Alexander Ivanchenkov, Vladimir Dzhanibekov.

  • Soyuz 22: Axyonov, Bykovsky.
