I would like to get some opinions of the autographs on this Apollo 11 cover. I purchased this cover in 1989 from another space collector. I am certainly no expert on autographs but I know that the collectSPACE community has many qualified individuals who can help identify the authenticity of the signatures.

Thanks to all of you for your generosity and assistance over the years in helping me with my collection. I truly appreciate it.

I am not an expert but I Would like to be. Regarding your cover, the Collins and Aldrin look a lot like my example of secretary signatures. The Armstrong however I am not sure and wouldn't dare comment.

Can anyone else help me identify these autographs? Like to know if they are authentic or not.

From an uneducated eye; Aldrin: good, Collins: bad, Armstrong: unsure...

Sorry to ask again but I may be selling this cover in the future to pay some medical bills. I would very much like to get some opinions from this community about the autographs. As always I appreciate your help.

You might also want to post your cover on the Space Memorabilia and Flown Artifacts page on Facebook; many there are knowledgeable on covers, signatures etc. Steve Zarelli is considered THE expert on Armstrong autographs. You might consider looking up "good" examples of Armstrong signatures on the internet (sold at auction for example) and see if one matches your cover. Good luck!
